I think i have a black mold starting to grow from the inside of the wall behind my shower (where the pipes and plumming are). i know there are promblems back there b/c there is a rust coming through the grout that i have to bleach w/CLR, but now between the tile and the basin, the calk has fallen off (its a 50+ year old town home, cheaply built). The calk was a black/gray color when we moved in, i sprayed it with a tub cleaner and scrubbed in that area, only to have the calk fall off, and a black colored mold exposed behind it. the mold is now starting to grow on the grout, and i cant kill it with any of my tub cleaners. i have to scrub out my tub frequently or it will adhere to any soap scum and make my shower look really nasty in a VERY short period of time (twice a week). are black mold spores air borne? does this sound like black mold? could this be what is making me sick? its only in this one bathroom, but the presense of the rust tells me there are leaks back there.
