Mold and moisture-resistant drywall is a specialized gypsum board with treated cores and/or fiberglass/moisture-resistant paper facings that deter mold growth and repel water, making it ideal for humid areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and basements, unlike standard drywall with paper that feeds mold.
