Because heat contributes to accelerated and better protein (or enzyme) activity. Too cold or too hot inhibits (stops) it.

Mold only grows in a moist, very warm atmosphere. It cannot live in the cold. That's why there seems to be more mold in the southern states, and southeast coast than anywhere else in the US.

We are in a condo in FL that is being renovated and the walls will be torn out in Aug. With no air conditioning
for about 3 weeks.  Will mold likely form on upholstered furniture....or how can the furniture be protected?
