Mold Spores!! Very Dangerous for us humans to be breathing in, too!! If you have them in your home somewhere, its best to get rid of whatever its on. For the simple fact, if they get into your lungs it can be very close to deadly! If its on your carpet, I would have a professional come to treat it, with thier masks on and the whole enchilada! Or simply get rid of the carpet, and lay new carpet yourself or with family's help. If its in your refrigerator, you definately need to do away with the whole entire dish its in! And so on! You dont want whatever its on to even be in your home anymore whatsoever, once its there and you know about it now. Be very careful especially with small children around it! I wouldn't even allow any children of any ages to go into this room with this mold at all. For that matter! Just be very careful whoever is going to have to be dealing with it, whether they pick it up or pour it out, they should use gloves, and a really good mask, to get rid of it. Because mold spores can travel from being moved. Or from a draft in the air, or from someone even shutting a door while this is taking place. Once those mold spores are moving about the room they can spread elsewhere too! So, be very careful doing so, or tell your helper to wear a mask, and gloves doing it, if it's not going to be you. Good Luck.
