Mold can return after removal, especially when removal has been attempted with a D.I.Y approach. Many D.I.Y guides catered to removing mold involve the use of bleach, bleach is very effective at removing mold from surfaces, but due to molds nature, it likes to deep root itself within the material it is living on, meaning it will most likely return in a short period of time after attempted removal. Another concern will be if the area has not been dried well enough after removing surface mold; in the attempt to remove mold yourself, you may be contributing to a higher moisture level where the mold is already striving, which will result in higher mold growth than before the removal attempt.
The following four mold variants have the highest chance of returning after removal: Stachybotrys is a type of mold commonly referred to as "toxic black mold." It can produce mycotoxins that can cause various health problems. Aspergillus is a type of mold that can be found both indoors and outdoors. It can cause respiratory problems and allergic reactions in some people. Cladosporium is a type of mold that is commonly found in damp areas like bathrooms and basements. It can cause hay fever-like symptoms and respiratory problems. Alternaria is a type of mold that is commonly found in damp places like showers and under sinks. It can cause allergic reactions and respiratory problems.
