Default Mold problems in cut bamboo

Can anyone tell me what kind of mold this is on the inside of my cut
bamboo?

When I fell a pole to use to make these didgeridoo's I cut the pole
into the lengths I will need for the didge's. I then roast them
immediately over a very hot fire which turns the bamboo from green to
a nice caramel color. Only occasionally I get this issue... Is the
mold dangerous? Is there a treatment I can do to prevent it?

Thanks!


I would flush with standard bleach first and see if the issue appeared
afterward.
