Or just project negative ions into your working and sleeping places and breathe easy, wipe the mold spores off the walls every couple months or so. Test their effectiveness by shining a bright flashlight in the dark. You can't see the beam!

Ozone (the source of those negative ions) comes with its own issues. If you are going to use ionize with ozone, it's best to do it when you're not going to be home for a while.

Ozone doesn't generate ions, ionizers produce ozone, and how much will depend on the device.

Are you saying that all particulates in the air inside a house are mold spores? Surely the vast majority is just normal dust (dander, microplastics, silicates, etc.)?

Dust becomes mold rapidly.

Way more rapidly than anyone’s comfortable.

Ambient air has mold spores.

Add a single humid breeze through the space, game over.

If you don’t have a humidity range being recorded day to day in your home, you may be surprised the excursions.

How do you "project negative ions" ?

jadamson 2 days ago | parent [-]

With an ionic air purifier.

If you can see the mold, that’s too much mold for anywhere sharing air with the inside of your living and sleeping space.
