But when I saw Aspergillus being a bad kind for humans I decided to Google that since there are MANY species of Aspergillus and few are toxic. The question being as you'll read in the link below,it's very difficult to ID one species from another.
Here is that Google search

Too right, Carolyn
the common aspergillus is not a harmful mold. But I believe the toxin producing types are encouraged by bleach treatments, where it has occurred as a house mold (instead of a ho hum bread mold). That is just based on things I read probably 20 years ago and maybe a few more things when I did mycology also more than 15 y ago!
It's interesting to see what crops up on the mold mats when you leave them too long...
tells me what's going on in my environment. Penicilliums are king here.
So smelly.
