Mold and Your Home | US EPA
Water in your home can come from many sources. Water can enter your home by leaking in from outside or by seeping through basement floors. Showers or even cooking can add moisture to the air in your home.
The amount of moisture that the air in your home can hold depends on the temperature of the air. As the temperature goes down, the air is able to hold less moisture. This is why in cold weather moisture can condense on cold surfaces (for example, drops of water form on the inside of a window). This moisture can encourage mold to grow.
