Bleach does not kill mold, it does help remove surface mold but everyone should be very aware that it absolutely does not kill it. So while the beach side looks cleaner it does not mean that you have killed any of the mold. Vinegar does kill mold, after watching this video I would suggest to anyone who wanted to use bleach to clean mold to go ahead and do so as long as they also apply something that does kill mold after removing what's obvious to eyesight. So after removing most of the gunk with bleach I recommend cleaning with something like Hydrogen Peroxide or vinegar & baking soda to make sure you've actually killed whatever your eyes can not see and stop it from coming back or spreading. H202 and baking soda are great against killing mold but vinegar does not kill all types of mold. If this info was useful be sure to like it so it moves up in this comments feed.

@@IlIIlIllllIIIlllI Yes, that should work
I have used bleach in my shower and it removes the mold for many months before having to reapply, longer than anything else I tried. Do you have some studies that proves vinegar works and bleach doesn't kill mold? I have found everyone recommends vinegar for everything in the house and garden, but it is just not that effective.
thats why whites after bleaching still smells moldy if it had mold. Vinegar does gets rid of it. Im going to try and mix vinegar with bleach?
@@loudm0uth Never mix Vinegar with Bleach! It can kill you

Love the no time wasting high pace! Much appreciated video 🙏
Thanks Bill for yet another great video.
I used undiluted bleach on my bathroom ceiling back in 2005.
17 year later it has never come back.
Applied it with a rag, rubbed it until all the mould was gone and then rinsed it all off.
Then I let it dry, and reapplied undiluted bleach with a clean rag, this time not rinsing it off.
Bleach is awesome!
Yes, me too have removed mold with either 5050 bleach and water and I allowed the bleach to soak into the wood and applied a couple times making sure bleach would penetrate far into anything I treated. I use chlorine on everything in my bathroom and toilet and it's so satisfying seeing the black be turned into something that are dead and can be just washed away
Things that kill mold are: Acids, strong bases, & oxidizers. Including:
• vinegar mixed with hot or cold water,
• bleach mixed with hot or cold water,
• borax mixed with hot water,
• hydrogen peroxide (mix with water depending on strength).
Notes:
- DO NOT mix bleach and vinegar. It will create TOXIC Chlorine gas.
- Do not mix vinegar and baking soda. The acid in the vinegar is what kills the mold; mixing vinegar with baking soda neutralizes this acid, rendering it ineffective. Use either vinegar OR baking soda diluted in water.
So is baking soda the best or vinegar?
Crap I used all 3 lol what do I do? I have a window open
Bleach doesn't kill mold. It will help remove and clean it, but it doesn't kill the mold that is in the wall.
@@TheVCRTimeMachine No chemical can kill mould which it doesn't come into actual contact with. Doesn't matter if it's vinegar, bleach, or anything else.
You can't kill mould using magic and/or wishful thinking
!
But bleach in contact with mould does kill it. Far more effective than vinegar etc.
White vinegar? Apple cider vinegar? Which one ?
Thank you I'm about to go try Vinegar on Bathroom Mold and searched up a video. I'm concerned about your health though; i love your video; straight. To the point, no beating around the bush, and simple instructions - no unnecessary music in between. You have yourself a subscriber and a thumbs up💕
I use beer. Don't clean with it. I just drink it and I forget about the mold. Works everytime!
🤣🤣🤣
🤣👍🏼
:)
😅😂
😂😂😂😂😂
I wouldn't use bleach and vinegar so closely together though - if they overlap the fumes can be hazardous!
This is so useful, I have mold on the sealant next to a shower tray and you have given me the option of keeping mold down ongoing without risking the tray using bleach. Thanks a lot.
So satisfying watching it wipe away like that!
We use bleach for cleaning mould in extreme cases. Another great product Bill is Concrobium (Bunnings) which is gentler on the lungs, eyes etc. it effectively eliminates existing mould, prevents mould re-growth and eliminates musty odours with no harmful chemicals. We tend to use this in occupied properties.
Thanks for this. I cleaned my goldfish farm room ceiling with vinegar now (I did not want to use chemicals in there) and it worked!
Gotta love it. Just a guy with no gloves, goggles or mask and he’s just getting in there 😂😂

I'd go w/ vinegar first, then finish off w/ bleach. Nice work! 👍

Congrats, you've just made chlorine gas.
Excellent video showing how to clean mould with bleach and with vinegar. Bonus points are awarded for tips on surviving WW1 chemical weapon attack with just safety t-shirt ;)
Mate you’re a legend. Thank you!
Bleach will always bleach the mold and allow it to be cleaned faster However both moss and mold come back after using bleach because both moss and mold prefer a slightly alkali environment , where as Vinegar is acidic and lowers the PH of the surfaces and discourages future growth. You can even get better longer lasting results after the initial bleach cleaning and rinse by using a lower PH vinegar or more acidic as a final treatment. ALSO you should always wear gloves and a mask when cleaning black mold.
Thank you for this video Bill, I would suggest wearing a mask as well because mold spores can get into the lungs! :) Stay safe Bill and thank you again for the video!
Also protective eye wear!
Also if any of the bleach came into contact with the vinegar it would produce chlorine gas...
@@darryljones3009 not sure bout that buddy chlorine gas is however released if bleach is used with soap detergents.. however chlorine can be very effective at killing bacteria and germs the area should be well ventilated and don't breath in the fumes released.. thing is bleach/ chlorine or even vinegar do not kill the mould spores they can help remove it but the spores you can't see remain deeply inbeded in the material such as tile grout, wood, plaster and other such porous materials so it is best to use a specific product that is designed for the purpose of killing the mould/mildew spores and preventing it from coming back...
In all the tests, he wiped down the bleach side first while it was still damp. Some might suggest that was a good thing for the vinegar, giving it more killing time, but it probably allowed it to dry out, requiring "elbow grease" every time.
Thanks Bill. Very practical.
Watching this is quite encouraging actually. I found some mold in my house, and I freaked out. Landlord says its fine and have a dispute about a bunch of things about if I should move out or get professionals to clean it up, etc, etc. And I was reading about all kinds of molds and mildew and how dangerous they can be. And I still understand that, indeed, precautions are necessary and you don't want it to build up and that ideally you wear PPE. But seeing this dude without a mask or gear on and no gloves just wiping it down, whilst not the "optimal" way to do it, does calm my nerves a bit about the scale of the danger.
i am in the exact same boat. Still needs to be cleaned but no need to pay someone else to do it!
Great video! I’m going to go tackle the mold in my kitchen cabinets now 😷
Give it a few days, and the vinegar will have eaten all of that mold up. Bleach and vinegar work differently to kill mold. Bleach kills it fast on surfaces, but doesn't penetrate things like wood. Vinegar penetrates below the surface, but takes longer to work. So really, it just depends on what type of surface you're using them for, and how you need to product to work.
You’re an authority right
Bleach destroys mold and does penetrate,,,,
Just use 409 or fantastic or some other mild cleaner for sensitive issues
Vinegar for salad dressing period
Never used vinegar to clean nothing and never will
Hippie BS
Exactly right and wear a mask and glove 😇
@@tlouandtherest4378 you do know though, that bleach may clean mould off, it doesn't actually kill it.. the mould is still beneath the surface and will reappear if you don't use vinegar or another actual mould killer
should i use vinegar on wood?
Looks like it penetrated the wood in the video. And I guarantee if you leave a mist of vinegar on your wall for 2 days it will have dried up and left a stain
Oh u r my savior! I was searching so hard for this, how to clean it. U saved d day!
What no one has mentioned on here is that the vinegar that should be used is industrial strength vinegar. It kills all mold while the bleach does just cleans off the surface. I bought some in Woolworths. It works well. When you use bleach, you can still smell the moldy smell whereas the vinegar takes that moldy smell away because it actually kills the mold at it's source.
Please can you tell me the brand of the industrial vinegar that I can get in the UK?
Also I though Woolworths closed down years ago 😂
Cool
@@cakepudding3220 I'm from uk as well and that's what I thought lol. Woolworths closed ages ago hahaha

You should do a follow up video showing on which side the mould grew back.
This would be the ultimate test. He's done the quick test but not the after effect test💯💯
Thank you for this video! It was very helpful!!
i am just amazed you are not wearing any protection. ANYWAY - i have so much stress about mold / mildew / whatever from under my bathroom sink. Watching you go ham on the mold with no concern is giving me a lot of faith in myself to get this done. I hear that vinegar does more to kill mold in the long run, yet i really really appreciate this breakdown
Don't be fooled by this guy. Always wear gloves and a mask
Bruh he tells you to wear gloves, he didn’t have them on hand.
@@rangochu2713 id say its worth a stop & reshoot! I have already handled my mold problem, good luck with yours !
@@rangochu2713 oh also - i used vinegar and it was massively successful, hasnt returned. So. Its worth the few passes
So hot water and vinegar (with microfiber cloths) will remove the spores. The bleach just removes the colour. It is best to do a hot water and vinegar application as well so you can kill off the spores. You just need to ensure you don't go over the clean surface with the microfiber cloth as you are just recontaminating the area.
no, never add water to anything that has to do with mold fungus etc, it helps mold grow, and you are diluting the vinegar making it less effective.
What kind of vinegar can I use?
@@jelli_berri white vinegar
Great demonstration 👍🏽
👍
Excellent thanks for this. Was wondering about this exact thing!
Very impressive demonstration..
Good intentions but the results are meaningless since the “experiment” had many flaws. Plus the vinegar should NOT be diluted. Household vinegar is only 5% acetic acid so diluting it to only 2.5% is not effective and cannot compete with bleach. You should be using undiluted vinegar or preferably cleaning vinegar which is 10%.
Not to mention, one takes longer to work than the other, and one penetrates surfaces, and the other doesn't.
@@powerofknowledge7771 think it’s the bleach that doesn’t penetrate !!
@@jgrace8784 what's stupid is he mixed the 2 while spraying lol, some of each got sprayed on the opposite side
Is there a mold vaccination shot?
@@davecurtis6930 Vaccines are for viruses
To the people who are saying that bleach doesn’t kill mold: You’re wrong.
Bleach does, in fact, kill mold. Mold is killed by acids and strong bases. Also, oxidizers kill mold. Bleach, like hydrogen peroxide, is an oxidizer and will kill mold organisms and spores - as do most oxidizers. HOWEVER, bleach does not soak into porous materials (such as drywall) very well. Therefore, bleach mainly kills the surface mold, while leaving most of the imbedded mold. This means the mold will grow back. Bleach is excellent at killing mold on non-porous surfaces, like tile, but if you are going to use it to kill mold on porous materials, like drywall, you need to use something in addition to the bleach that WILL kill the imbedded mold, preventing it from coming back again. This is why using bleach to kill mold is no longer recommended for restoration work.
Alternatively, you can also use vinegar to kill mold. Acids are generally more effective at killing mold than bases, and of the acids, vinegar is the safest acid you can use to kill mold. Also, some people say you can mix the vinegar with baking soda to make it stronger - no, you can’t. Mixing vinegar and baking soda neutralizes the acid in the vinegar; the acidity is what kills the mold, so that is just silly. To use vinegar to kill mold, mix equal parts vinegar and (preferably distilled) water. It doesn’t matter if the water is hot or cold. Or, if you do want to make something stronger, mixing distilled vinegar (acetic acid 5% acidity) with hydrogen peroxide is much more effective than just plain old vinegar, *but is damaging to skin and eyes* . If you use this mix, make it up fresh and use immediately.
Another oxidizer (other than bleach or hydrogen peroxide) you could use is Borax. Borax is a basic oxidizer that is natural and safe for the environment, but generally works best in hot water.
No matter how you are killing mold, please, please, please remember to wear gloves and a mask (preferably one with a HEPA filter). Certain molds, like black mold, produce mycotoxins, which are damaging to neurological pathways, and all mold produce spores, which can cause a variety of health problems if ingested and/or inhaled. Any harsh chemicals used to kill the mold could also cause potential health problems. Most of the time mold exposure goes undiagnosed and untreated or mistreated because it can cause a variety of symptoms, many of which may seem unrelated to one another. Certain people will also have worse reactions than others so one person may have little-to-no reaction to mold exposure, while another develops hives, bloating, extreme fatigue, and a respiratory infection.
Man for a drummer you sure know a heck of a lot about mould thanks for sharing! If only there is one solution that kills all moulds because Gannicus the above contributor said even vinegar doesn't kill all moulds.
Great reply. I don't think this guy is doing it right without a HEPA mask and a pair of gloves and maybe even goggles.
I've done mold work and I've come to the conclusion that the best solution is to kill it the combo of bleach, peroxide and white vinegar several times. Then a commercial spray. And then a sawzall.
"Stop being lazy" is what I said to myself because the time it takes to chop it out after it's dead and wrap it up, I'm just reinstall pieces, tape and paint is well spent for peace of mind and something you can tell clients if you're a property manager.
Chop it out about a foot away from the mall, find some Sheetrock the same thickness. Cut it to fit. Joint compound, tape. Primer with Samantha mold chemical mixed in. And then paint the whole wall like nothing ever happened.
In the US we have this whole industry of certified mold people that want to turn it into the Kennedy space center type project and when you're done paying them you might as well just kill the mold, rip out the sheetrock, wrap it up like you're handling hazmat with the right filter on your face, garbage and gloves, and replace it. Becomes a drywall job any painter can do.
@@ThanksAgain Mate I have a funny feeling that's even more complex then it sounds you should do a video and proof of concept because I'm tearing my hair out here trying to find a solution that will work long term that's safe, that works because I'm senstive to harsh chemicalsg just using vinegar, sugar soap, bathroom powered cleaner and scrubbing it off with rough towel even though I bough one of those spining brushes but the black mould so tough you have to apply alot of pressure in a small area so I find doesn't really help only a small toothbrush with some agent like bathroom cleaner that has bleach with alot of elbow grease can only lift it and by the time she done the mould's back.
It kills me to think how unprofessional my realtors and landlord are who constant demand more money when their laziness is costing me a fortune in downtime with all the this rain,
I have no time to make money when I'm constantly cleaning shit - that could have been subsidized into my rent for not much more if the bastards had brains to use and non toxic antifugal paints to save me braindamage I'm suffering right now though I'm suprise I haven't had more health problems considering a enormous mould problems I'm tackling.
Of course one would wonder why I don't repaint myself - well even if I had the money which I don't because this place has been a money pit to repaint with antifungal paint you still have to get rid of all the mould first is and that's such a big job when you don't have the money to hire the professionals so this has become a reoccuring nightmare just got done with the lounge room and doing bedroom now only to find the moulding is coming into the lounge room and on ceiling where it's difficult and most tedious to reach an a source of constant nightmare!
@@SusieQSydney one thing I do is get a 7 gallon dehumidifier with a hose that automatically drains into the nearest shower. That brings the humidity down to a level that kills mold, along with white vinegar acid, peroxide, and please.
Cutting down sheetrock as a matter of preference. There's some great sawzalls, but it can be done with sheetrock knives... Razors. If you can find a drywall contractor to talk to you about it you'll find that it's a lot simpler than I make it sound probably. Anybody with experience in demolition can also speak to the matter.
Pulling down sheetrocks easy, but I believe in making it safe for the tradesman if you're not going to do it yourself and that means killing the mold first as best you can. Three or four applications, scrubbing, and then the commercial product that kills the mold that is left inside of the sheetrock, which I still don't trust. And cold environments water leeches from the outside to the inside of your home in winter. And hot environments the reverse is true. Either way there's water going through your sheetrock... It's not gallons of water but it could be enough to activate mold that's left.
Pulling down the sheetrock and starting again to me is the best solution. If it means putting sheetrock throughout the entire house, it could be worth the Peace of mind.
@@ThanksAgain we're double brick no sheet rock here but yeah maintaining a mould free enviroment is an investment but I haven't been able to do anything productive much the mould cleaning is consuming all my time and in a limited financial situation without being able to work.
I was hoping I can get on top of 6 spaces including bathroom, lounge room and hallway situation with 3 bedrooms and eventually paint the whole darn place with antifugal paint or stuff it - makes some money and move. Just almost done cleaning all the mould in my bedroom so I guess I can just stay there and not dewell the yuck of the rest of the house and hopefully I can build finanically towards moving out of this money pit and end this reoccuring nightmare considering they're uping the price to the highest on this street it's just not worth staying.
Often we end paying more when I try to save with cheap rent or equity sweat!
Housing affordability is just rediculous I think we can be all agreed that's about one of biggest issues everyone's facing now and we really need to bring that solution market shortly or we're all in the crapper!

How? How are there ANY dislikes on this video? Sheer awesomeness, thanks for the comparison!
The dislikes are from mold spores
I think your problem with vinegar is that you are diluting it instead of buying 20 percent one. Even regular 5 percent works pretty well straight undiluted.
Honestly I was very doubtful at first but wow it actually works well and very well amazing thank you so much for your video
This was very helpful. Thank you.
Thanks for posting. I needed this! Hopefully soon the apartment will be, bye, bye, mold. Thanks for putting the proportions in, too.

Jack of all trades Bill. Killing it mate. Love your work.
Thanks for the comparison Bill.
I’ve had recurring issues with mold, sad to say it was my fault. I was over diluting the bleach solution. I’ll be trying the 1 x 1 mixture from here on. Once again thanks 🙏🏼🤙🏼
DO NOT mix water with Vinegar OR Bleach!! You want to kill the mold completely!! Mold needs water to thrive so, why would you mix water with ANYTHING you’re trying to kill them with? Simply use the Vinegar as is (in it’s purists form). The same goes for Bleach. The stronger, the better!!

You should have personal protective gears before doing that, the mold spread in the air when you wipe it and it’s dangerous for health.

@@joeslacker1020 Probably, but a face mask similar to those worn for Covid-19 (N95 mask) would be more suitable.

@@tlouandtherest4378 Wouldn't that be breaking the law disturbing the peace? If you have a gas mask on that is going to cause people to freak out like there's actually gas around. Whether there is or not it could cause a concern legally speaking
If you have mold in the first place it's already all over your environment..... not saying it's good.... but you are already breathing it in.....any air and steam releases it and you breathe it in..... yes you should at least wear a mask but it's already all over the house at that point so you are being exposed
Mould experts say that bleach only "bleaches" the mould, so you can't see it, but it's still actually there. Vinegar and Tea Tree Oil are recommended.
There's considerable amount of studies showing that bleach kills very efficiently almost any mold and any bacteria... But the problem is that is so strong that is toxic to us. Bleach is more powerful than vinegar and tea tree, but is waaaayyyyyy more toxic
@SavageArfad Mould spray I have seen in the shop has pretty much the same ingredients as the Domestos bleach. It just seems to be more diluted and is in spray form. Domestos is in thick gel form, so when diluted to the same consistency will have less active ingredients.
nice job and great tip!
Thank you, nice demonstration
Awesome Bill. Thank you bro. The bleach smashed the mould. Love it

Hey just to let you know that bleach doesn’t penetrate the paint very well as chlorine is a gas and evaporates very quick. The spores are still active and the mould most probably will return if moisture is enough

Hi
I run a property maintenance business and can quote you
Are you in sydney?
Did you watch the video? I'd did 10x better. And if you are trying to argue codes researched and setup by the entire health industry you do nothing but make yourself look stupid
@@Rigmor_Talonbeard
I run a property maintenance business and tried all methods of mould removal and sorry but bleach has never worked. It actually damaged paint and makes it more porous for mould to thrive
Before you call anyone stupid, maybe you could ask me to explain further.
The way you responded makes me wonder if you are educated or experienced
Your type of paint was incompatible because it was porous. The pores soak up a lot of bleach, and it doesn't get washed away completely from them afterwards, it stays there to eat away at them, making the pores even more numerous, meaning the mold comes back again and a sterile environment cannot be maintained due to the powers being hard to get to. Bleach was never intended to be a fungicide, but the clean sterile environment you can easily get on non-porous surfaces inhibits mold growth because living things don't enjoy living on sterile environments. If you need to kill mold in a porous surface you cannot go without a real fungicide and fungistatic, maybe even coating or a repaint to make sure it never comes back and becomes easier to clean in the future.
Great bird sounds in the backyard
Love it ! I just try it ..Thanks 😊

Thank you very much for shairing.
Vinegar is safe and actually kills the spores. Just need to repeat a few times, and don’t mix with water. Get a good quality vinegar. Bleach looks great but the spores are hiding there still and not safe. Vinegar is my got too for mould.
It’s more involved than exterior problem. Could be in the walls and I was told mold spores spread through the house.
Using some form of fungi cide is best.

I have found white vinegar very helpful at killing mould. However I use it neat - I do not dilute it by adding water! As this significantly weakens the chemical composition of the vinegar.
Love the comment!

Either way, or even if you're not, it's all excellent with me!!! Your usage of the word "neat" in reference to no water being used, is deliciously funny and down right adorably cute, making your comment Primo Top Shelf Quality.
I've read that bleach actually feeds mould. It looks like it's gone because it's 'bleached'. Be interesting to see the results in a few weeks.
Ive used bleach in the past on mold. It does a great job. Then I hit the "clean' area after it is completely dry with 2 coats of primer.
Depends on surface. Non-porous vs porous
It doesn’t feed the mould unless the concentration is too dilute
The mold will come back in a few months 4sure
Well,. Just imagine what it looks behind that drywall.
What you need to do is tear it down and start all over from the beginning.
Thank you for sharing really helped
I used bleach once to clean mold n mildew n it never came back however I was looking for an alternative to the bleach harsh chemical smells and was very satisfying to see that vinegar can work on such a heavy stain. Thanks
Hey bill thanks for this, however you should wear a mask before dealing with mould. If it gets in your lungs it can be fatal
Thank you so much for show us this, you are awesome
Needed this thanks heaps 👏🏽
Thank you for the video!
You shouldn't have diluted the vinegar. Diluted white vinegar will do better solo
Where's your mask dude
Quite informative video
I just found you this morning (for gardn edges..which I loved...) this was something I needed to know..I dislike chemicals, but I see they have a use (like my hubby says!) thanks again!!
You’re very welcome, I’m glad you have enjoyed the videos 👍
I can garantee you that behind that area you just cleaned there is a tremendous amount of mold .
Cleaning it is not the solution , Sheet rock needs to be removed then treat the area with mold inhibitor
of any kind. Moisture reading it is also necesary before you put everything back .
Exactly the wall board or plaster needs to be torn out with gloves , masks and face shields.
Hi.... Does the mold come back?
Great job Bill, I'll try the bleach. Thanks.
Use iAQ2000 or Shockwave is better than bleach we used all the times on mold remediation jobs and the smell is better than bleach
Thank you for sharing.
I enjoyed the comparison, but you really shouldn't be using bleach and vinegar so closely together, you are creating chlorine gas.
Exactly
I don’t think he cared lol, no N95 no goggles, no gloves, no bunny suit... lol and most mold expert recommend black mold be completely demolished out and not simply cleaned.
@Any One What?
Hi Bill, thanks for sharing. I was going to use this and wanted to ask what type of vinegar is what you use ? I have white vinegar from coles which is in our pantry ? Is this ok?
Hi, I use cleaning vinegar which can be picked up from most stores. I get in from bunnings 👍
White vinegar is fine, but no name vinegar works best. And cleaning vinegar in supermarkets in the laundery section is also great.
LOVE! IT! LOVE IT!! ✨ THANK YOU BABY
Real hard work.
I usually use bleach to clean mould but this time I used vinegar to clean it as I wanted something less toxic. A week later the mould has come back worse than before. Never had that happen with bleach before
Did you mix the vinegar with water?
That’s great but now u have to see what’s going on behind the wall. Temporary fix but good job
If the moisture that caused the mold was condensation in the cabinet and it never soaked the drywall it will be fine.
I have used bleach to clean the walls which had mould and then paint using bathroom paint and has not had mould since then, I hope this helps people who have mould in they house.
Also maybe get a blueair hepasilent air purifier,I've used both bleach &vinegar together like a newb but still alive.
Thank you!
