| WOW! You JUST noticed THAT?! You must not go into your basement much - or it was behind a large piece of furniture/boxes. Looks like some sort of mold - you more than likely have a water issue. Good luck finding, resolving and removing it! |

| I agree--whatever it is, there's a water issue behind it. Is this an exterior wall? Or is there any plumbing behind it? Our kitchen had some mold growing on the cabinet and under the kitchen sink. I sent in a sample (tape test) to a mold testing lab that I'd found online to identify what it was. It think it ran me around $15 per sample. |
