i was visiting a friend yesterday and i noticed in the corner of her living room..?

there was a mushroom growing from the corner of her wall. Can't this be dangerous??? She has 4 kids at home too???

Mushrooms grown in dark damp places. I hope you told her what you saw. A car I once owned had mushrooms growing in the trunk. We had to rip all the matting out, wipe everything down, and air it out a couple of days. Washing the area down with bleach should help.

A mushroom?? I've never heard of that before. Did you ask her about it?? Mold is common, but Geeze! If she rents, she needs to get the landlord because that's a mold issue that far surpasses the norm. Yes, I would imagine that the damage from all that mold would be incredibly dangerous for the kids....mold can cause severe respiratory illness. Especially in kids.
