Relevant material on Mold Growth: "The most common types of household mold include Aspergillus, Fusarium, Penicillium and the infamous Stachybotrys. However, it is next to impossible to determine the exact date of mold infestation, and therefore to link its presence to a specific event. This may seem to act in insurers’ favor, if courts were unable to trace mold back to, for example, a water damage claim. Yet it also opens the door up for claims that are circumstantially linked to an insured event, despite lack of distinct knowledge of where the mold originated.... For example, the adjustment of a water claim could vary dramatically based on whether the damage comes from clean water overflowing a sink (so-called “white” water) or from a toilet back-up (so-called “gray” or “black” water depending on the level of contamination). Old techniques might have involved taking visibly wet floorboards out and closing up the area with new floorboards. However, understanding water’s ability to “wick” through wood, enclosing not yet visible moisture with new boards would actually provide a perfect atmosphere for mold growth. ...” (“Toxic Mold Claims: Covering the Bases", https://www.canadianunderwriter.ca/features/toxic-mold-claims-covering-the-bases/ )

Relevant material on mild dew & Mold: "Stagnant water in showers spurs mold growth, which is why so many people struggle to keep them free of mold and mildew. Plus, mold loves lurking in nooks between tile or deep in corners. Sometimes, hidden pipes under the sink or in the walls also have slow leaks that cause water to pool, making perfect hiding places for new colonies. “It has to do with the nature of the bathrooms, where we take showers and baths and wash up," Ogden said. "Water is constantly being turned on and off ... It’s a perfect ground for mold to grow.”..."
