To Urban:
 
        A mould spot onthe wall probably doesn't bode much harm for your
ferrets. If it gets close to within their reach, I would clean it with a dilute
bleach solution, but other than that they probably don't require evacuation.
 
        There are some allergies in the animal kingdom to various molds, but
ferrets have never been documented as having one.
