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

http://i643.photobucket.com/albums/u.../file-1359.jpg

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.

This is surface mold: http://www.guaduabamboo.com/bamboo-mold.html which you can easily wipe off. It usually doesn't re-occur once the bamboo is completely dried out.

No it doesn't wipe off.... It's on the inside not the outside. And
I've tried bleach. Doesn't work either. I guess I need some kind of
anti-fungal spray

could you please post more link of such pictures!!!

Oh yeah, more pictures would be very much appreciated!! Those didgeridoos look simply amazing!!
