So I been in a small studio apartment for many years already. Where I'm located, its very humid and hot. My main door is made of glass... here lot of apartment doors have a glass door as oppose to a regular door. I also have 2 windows. Back then, I didn't know that during the day you are suppose to have all your doors and windows open for air so I rarely had it opened. Did have my ceiling fans on almost always though. Then a while later, notice I was getting these white chalk spots on the wall that might be mold? Well it was like that for a while but I sort of ignored it.
Now years later, I notice certain spots on my wall have like this white chalk on it and its more noticeable. I used vinegar on it but the white chalk spots seem to always come back within an hour. I then made a mistake last time and put muriatic acid on the wall and basically now have several spots on he wall damaged/broken.... white spots. I assume you could imagine how that looks like? It looks like chipped wall in several spots. Is that dangerous to keep it like that? Could i just buy some paint and repaint those areas and thats it? I have zero clue about this. Also is turning on the ceiling fan bad idea because of this? I only have my mini split ac on few hours at night and thats all.
Now the other thing is the last few years, I been having my windows opened during the day but I think its too late and the damage is already done? Now when im not in this apartment and gone for a month or more, I typically have my ceiling fans on. But I don't have windows open for security. When I came back to my apartment each time, there seem to be always mold on my pillow and everything. But last time when I came back, I notice there are like black mold spots on one side of the walls and in the ceiling? I have a mini split ac on the wall and notice there is lot of those black mold spots around that area and on the ceiling. Does anyone know how this all happened? I did leave my ceiling fans on when i was away but it was pretty low though... as oppose to high mode.
