One of the easiest sign to notice a large mold presence is the changing color of a surface which is infected by mold presence. The surface on which large mold colonies are formed starts changing its color. Observing a color on your furniture or wall different from its original should hint you on possible existence of molds in your house. The surface on which there will be large mold population in form of colonies will often turn gray, brown, white or green in color. Large mold spores in air will also give a moldy smell. So any foul, strange smell should further strengthen your conclusion that the house is infected by molds.
