According to Dr Yasemin Didem Aktas, deputy academic director of the UK Centre for Moisture in Buildings (UKCMB), “Mould is everywhere, all the time,” this is because the UK is a pretty wet country and so some level of mould, particularly in damp places like bathrooms or windows is to be expected.

However it is how we manage the mould and prevent it building up into dangerous levels that is important. If you notice patches of mould on walls or ceilings then it's time to do something to stop spores spreading in the air.
