In a beach area, east coast.
Possible roach/cricket poop on the wood.

Mine also…
Note the staining on the wall where it made contact when dropping to the floor. This only happens from Bats while perched.
A pic of what’s above this area may help to confirm.

It appears to be some droppings of some sort. (Bat likely) In my experience that does not look like mold that I have encountered.
