How does mold work

280 viewsChemistryOther

Wouldn’t mold or mold spores have to somehow be present already to develop? I don’t understand how this happens with sealed containers or in houses if mold isn’t already present to begin festering. I’ve always been confused how it just appears out of thin air? Like where does it come from 😭

Mold spores float in the air. They are in every home, and were likely floating around wherever your sealed food was initially packaged. So even if you never open it, eventually it can still grow mold.
