Mold produces enzymes and antimicrobial compounds that inhibit the growth of bacteria. Additionally, molds compete with bacteria for nutrients and space, which helps limit bacterial growth in their environment.

In 1928 Sir Alexander Fleming noticed a halo shaped ring of bacteria growing around a spot of mold in a petri dish but the bacteria couldn't get close enough to the mold to eat it. He theroized something in the mold was killing off the bacteria as they tried to approach it. He grew a pure culture of the mold and found it was called penecillum notatum. It was from this mold he was able to extract pure penecillin.
