Hi all,
So I have a peach tree in my yard and the peaches are all getting moldy.
I went out and whacked the tree with a spade and all the moldy ones fell to the ground but of course their spores went flying into the air.
I tried not to breath but I'm sure I must have inhaled some spores - is this dangerous?
Does anyone know if peach mold can contain mytoxicn or whatever it's called- that dangerous mold that can cause pneumonia and infect your lungs?
Not much I can do about it now and i shouldn't have done it but at least all the moldy ones are off the tree, now I just have to get them off the soil as well so they don't infect the soil.
Should i wear a mask or is it ok?
Thank you!
Please reply if you know I know it's a stupid question but I'm trying not to 'freak' out.
