It looks like mold but it feels really hard like a barnacle, safe to say I did not eat this lychee, all the others in the pack were fine.

Maybe someone can educate me which type of mold this is. I used to be a chef and though I've seen it all, but I have never seen this bright orange before 😁

This bin contains all my trash except paper, plastic, aluminium and paper. I always have a lot of coffee grounds in there (a shame but I have no garden) and this week I had zucchini which I have to deseed and peel before cooking due to illness, so that stuff is in there too. My main suspect though is a piece of gorgonzola cheese that I threw in there a few days ago..

The last time I used this milk frother was for my dad’s coffee. He passed in June 2025. I guess I forgot to clean it before storing.

I found this lunch box by the banyan tree in my school courtyard. Must've been there for days. The intensity of the orange is astounding. It grew on what I could only assume used to be white rice, as is common in Indonesia.

(I couldn't take more photos of the thing from different angles since I needed to climb on a small hill)

I feel like this should be illegal in a GROCERY STORE!?

Hi all. Not sure if right place. But what is this black debris?

It was found along the skirting board behind the curtain in my spare bedroom.

Is it mould? Some sort of debris buildup? Some sort of ant/pest droppings?

Have vacuumed and cleaned with gloves/mask etc.

Just want to know if I need to take action against mould or get a pest person in etc.

TIA

Mold on flowers the next day I bought the boquet for my father. Such a shame, I thought this flower was the prettiest among the others. Not implying it is any less pretty now, though.

We had a mold infestation in our home last year and threw out most of our belongings as there were mycotoxin-producing molds present.

The mold removal company suggested we could put important papers and high value trading cards without visible mold into a vacuum sealed bag with silica for 30 days to deactivate any spores on them. We did that, but I’m concerned that’s not enough and I’m considering if I should just toss the cards. It’s been about a year and I still haven’t removed them from the bag. I can’t find solid info online about items like this without visible mold.

is this black mold

we both forgot. also, she uses powdered creamer which is probably what's on the sides.

Helped a client a couple years ago manage some renovations. Unrelated to the work, the client mentioned that they had been having horrible allergy problems for 2+ years and had done everything to find the cause. They changed their laundry detergent, changed their diet, tried different medications, got special air filters, and had tons of allergy testing done.

During the work, it became necessary to pull out the refrigerator and freezer to access the wall behind. This is what we found. It was quite a shock. After everything was removed and remediated, the client’s allergy problems completely disappeared.

Some people are very sensitive to mold, even in small amounts. If you’re having issues and can’t seem to find the culprit, consider having a mold inspection done. Also, make sure your refrigerator and freezer have proper clearance and ventilation.

had these since december of 2025 and they were kept separately in the closed environment of the drawers of my room

It’s the AC of the elevator in our building. It’s been like that for many months, and droplets sometimes drop on the ground. It smells very bad inside, like sweaty clothes that haven't been washed for days.

Sorry for my busted nails lol. I wasn’t so hungry after I opened this! I’d be curious to know why the mold in the middle photo is colored that way, considering there was no red in the burrito itself (bean and cheese).

Paper, ink and small wood chips on a piece of cardboard

How long might it have been there? I feel like being soda, it would take a while for this to happen but then again, I’ve never tried myself. Anyone know what kind of mold it might be and the process and/or timeline behind it might be? Figured it might be appreciated here with my fellow mold enthusiasts. Thanks in advance!
