Effects
- Gives Isaac a 25% chance to shoot a spore that, in addition to dealing damage, will stick to enemies.
- The chance is not affected by Luck.[1]
- Spores will explode 2.5 seconds after sticking to an enemy, dealing 5 damage to and poisoning nearby enemies and firing four more spores in a cross pattern.

- The spore effects will not damage Isaac.
- This item belongs to the Fun Guy set. Collecting three items from this set will transform Isaac into a walking mushroom.
Notes
- Items that deal continuous damage such as Brimstone, and Technology 2 will apply spores to enemies as well, despite the absence of tears.
- Spores can stick to Frozen enemies, and will act normally.
Synergies
- C Section: Some fetuses stick to enemies, expand, then burst.
- Gigante Bean: Spore explosions count as farts, and as such are increased in size.
- Godhead: Godhead's aura expands as the spore tear grows on enemies.
- Lodestone: Magnetized enemies draw other enemies to them, greatly increasing the chance that spores spread to other enemies.
- Lost Contact: Stuck tears will block projectiles shot by attached enemies, crippling or even stopping their ability to shoot projectiles entirely.
- My Reflection: The mini-spores generated by the spore explosions are affected by My Reflection.
Interactions
- Spindown Dice: Rerolls into the full Mom's Shovel, making The Forgotten's unlock easier.
- Dr. Fetus/Epic Fetus/Mom's Knife: No effect.
Trivia
- Mucormycosis originates from the Antibirth mod. In Antibirth, this item would create a poison fart cloud on every kill, similar to Contagion. The Mucormycosis fart clouds could also knock Isaac away and potentially into hazards.
- Mucormycosis is a fungal infection caused by fungi in the order Mucorales.
- According to the official Antibirth website, Isaac is blind when he has this item.
Bugs
Bug! During the Ultra Greed fight if a spore attaches to an Ultra Greed coin enemy, it may make the coins movement erratic and cause it to bounce around the room uncontrollably. The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth
