Most semi hard and hard cheeses freeze very well in the freezer, that way they can't grow mold as they will in the frig after a couple of weeks. Cheeses like Romano, Parmesan, things like that, even Cheddar freeze great until you're ready to use them again.
Can I use the cheese frozen, or do I need to thaw it first?
I use it straight from the freezer. Especially my mozzarella and Parmesans :)
I'm not sure why your cheese is moulding if you're keeping it in the fridge. Parmesan should be stored in the fridge if it will not be used up within a week.
Maybe your fridge is not cool enough>?
Make sure to keep the grated cheese in a sealed container. You can also put grated parmesan in the freezer for longer lasting.
I keep mine in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
