Homeowners rue fungus among us BY MARIANNA RILEY, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Somewhere between the stuff people may find on their shower curtain and the so-called 'toxic' mold that has forced people from their homes are thousands of other kinds of fungi, some of which are present in most homes. Fungi can be found everywhere from windowsills to refrigerator seals and can grow anywhere there is moisture and a food source.
The furry fungus has been blamed for a host of ailments including ear infections, nausea and overwhelming fatigue. It's relatively new to the scourge list, and some have called it 'the asbestos of the new millennium.'
