Mold detection?

I had a friend ask me if I knew anything about being able to detect mold. They had a problem in their house that is now resolved, but they had some health issues due to high mold counts.

Looks like size of mold is 4-10 microns, so would the PMS5003 be able to give helpful indications with the PM10 values, or are there dedicated mold sensors?

I cannot help without doing a little bit research about detecting with PM sensors. What I guess could help is the moisture as mold growth has a range where is more likely to occur.
