The answer is yes, just like animal leather, faux leather is susceptible to mold growth. To prevent mould try to keep the leather clean and dry. If you notice any signs of mould on your faux leather item, take action quickly. You can use a mixture of germicidal soap and water or white vinegar and water to remove the mould from the surface of the material. After cleaning, make sure to thoroughly dry the area with a soft cloth. (11)
