The mold itself is not dangerous but what is dangerous is the toxins that grow in the mold through the Fungus.

But yes if you do have mold in your house including black mold you should remove it safely or get it removed before it causes lung conditions as well as other health problems.

Exposure to certain mold including black mold has been linked to developing cancer including lung cancer.
