title: A one-year survey of mold growth inside twelve homes.
abstract: A survey was performed of the mold flora in the air and on the surfaces inside twelve homes throughout four seasons. There were significant variations of the mold flora in homes associated with the outdoor spore count, various rooms, carpeting, central air-conditioning and pets. We conclude that homes may be a source of perennial mold exposure.
