well this is what they would look like if you had moisture soaking
through the plaster board or drywall over a period of time. Sometimes
damage like this takes months, and sometimes years.

| Home mold repairs can be done by
professionals or skilled handyman. Most of these repairs require
removing the mold, mildew or fungus and then replacing the damaged
building materials.
Mold has been around for years and is part of the natural process to
keep our planet clean. We might not want it in our homes but if the
conditions are right, there is little we can do to keep it from growing
in areas behind our walls or in our floors.
It's easier to clean the mold that is growing on top of the flooring, in
the grout between our tile and on the walls or ceilings, with a chemical
household cleaner. This is usually where the mold is visible and easy to
access.
Mold can cause sickness and shouldn't be overlooked as a possibility, if
someone or a few people in your home are starting to become ill more
often or even all the time. There are mold kits that you can buy, but I
have never used them, therefore I cannot guarantee that they work
effectively.
If you're walls, ceilings or floors are
stained, damp or soft, you might
have mold growing behind the walls, but one thing is for sure, if you're
ceilings, walls or floors are soft, there is a problem anyway. Proper
home maintenance can save you money in the long run.
