They can irritate the eyes, skin, or your whole face as well. Make sure each workstation is closed and inform the other household to go out.

Molds can be in non-porous materials such as tiles or in porous materials like woods. For molds in non-porous materials, rub them with soap and water, then disinfect with detergent, bleach or other materials at home.

Put all the garbage bags in sealed and doubled bags and call the concern municipal officers for proper disposal.

If all this seem to be a big job for you, you may opt to call an specialist to remove molds since they have special equipments for this too.If you use a mold specialist, ask their opinion on a great product or go to some janitorial store and see what they can offer. This would ensure that the job is finished and done efficiently.
