Like other pesticides, fungicides are numerous and diverse.This complexity has led to diverse schemes for classifying fungicides. Classifications are based on inorganic (elemental sulfur and copper salts) vs organic, chemical structures (dithiocarbamates vs phthalimides), and, most successfully, mechanism of action (MOA).
Walls of more than half-brick thickness need to be drilled at 230 millimetres (9.1 in) spacing to a depth of just over half the wall thickness. Walls of over 460 millimetres (18 in) thickness should be drilled from both sides. Fungicide is then injected into the holes, and the wall surfaces are sprayed. [8]

Piping in walls may also be a source of mold, since they may leak (causing moisture and condensation). [ 10 ] Spores need three things to grow into mold: nutrients – cellulose (the cell wall of green plants) is a common food for indoor spores; moisture – to begin the decaying process caused by mold; and time – mold growth begins from 24 ...
