The mold could be from a food bolus your T left in the web.

Pull it out and keep a sharp eye for more. Spot cleaning tends to work unless you have a very humid enclosure. If more pops up in other places you will probably need to redo the substrate.

You can pull it out if you want, but the presence of mold has never proven to be a problem for me. If it annoys you, just dry the enclosure out and increase ventilation. That usually prevents mold from getting much of a foothold.

I agree hobo, re-doing the sub for a little mold is quite an overreaction IMO.

I just spot clean and ease up on the water for a bit. I try to take out bolus as soon as I see it but sometimes mold pops up, never had a t die from a little mold that I had to remove
