What is it? Seems to grow out of some wooden areas in the room. I’ve tried peroxide and bleach. Would a steamer help? Sorry in advance for the bad picture quality.

    When you say “wooden areas of the room,” do you mean it’s on different wooden objects? That’s a chair in the picture, right? What else is it on?

    Is the room humid? If it’s any kind of mold, streaming is a bad idea.

      On some pieces of furniture. Not on others. Maybe it needs to spread, maybe the unaffected pieces are better sealed. The place gets marine air, so it’s very humid, but enclosed.

        Mold growth on furniture is weird. Mold needs two things: moisture and something to eat. Usually if a room has enough moisture, you’re going to get mold or mildew on fabric and more porous things before you’re going to get it on treated wood. Does the room smell like mold or mildew?

          It smells like an unused room, but dampness is there as it’s exposed to marine air. Can’t detect traces of mold on the porous items like linen, cushions etc, but I’m not too familiar with what to look out for. Any tips?
