Despite its name, pink mould is actually not a mould at all - it's bacteria.
Bu similar to mould it can often be found in bathrooms, collecting on grout, around plugs and along bath seals. It thrives in warm areas that get constant moisture and provide minerals it can feed on.
People sometimes mistake pink mould for a build-up of products, such as shampoo, as it's slimy to touch and grows like a film, rather than a textured pattern like other moulds.
