These commonly occur in Spring, Summer and early Fall. Mold spores are found outdoors throughout most of the year, but mainly in warmer seasons. Indoor fungus may come from sources hidden in the heating and cooling system, carpeting and furnishings of homes and commercial buildings at any time of year.
