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💕
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.
@@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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
I do a two day clean using both. I start by spraying all mould with vinegar and let that sit. The next day I spray everything with bleach with open windows and doors. I would never spray both on the same day for safety reasons. It works, with no scrubbing involved.
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!
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 ;)
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!
@@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...
I have had success with bleach. While treating the shower I spilled some bleach on myself. Pubic crabs now gone. Thank you so much and my girlfriend is happy too.
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
@@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
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
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.
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.
Don’t be naive! Just because some cool guy is willing to be careless with his health doesn't mean there's any less of a risk. Doesn’t mean there’s any more of one necessarily either, but please do your own research. This guy is not a professional!
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.
@@MrDeanDog91wdym? You have to dilute the vinegar or bleach with water. Even in this video he’s using one part vinegar/bleach to one part water. Then you wipe it and dry it after
@@joeslacker1020 Why don’t you use a gas mask It’s no big thing That is a little section , could finger paint with that NP People talk shit , it toxic if inhaled over time , like heavy doses I wouldn’t lick my fingers after finger painting People exaggerate big
@@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
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.
@@billshowto Always happy to support my fellow content creators. I am looking forward to improving on my own current video format I have uploaded and, in the future, trying to create content as good as yours in the long term.
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!!
@@pinao9928, I totally agree!! The same applies to Bleach and Ammonia. NEVER mix them together!!!!!! That’s a quick way of collapsing your lungs (which equals, DEATH).☠️💀
@@nernatbentley3778 understandable if it’s on something like tile, but if you want to get it off of a painted surface, it’s best to use a solution of hot water, vinegar, and a bit of borax. Spray it on, scrub it, wipe it, spray again and let it sit for 10 minutes, and wipe it dry.
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
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
@@RigmorTalonbeard 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.
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.
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
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
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%.
Saw this and had to try it. Used the bleach and it worked like a charm. Wish I could post a before n after Pic of my bathroom ceiling for all to see. Thank you so much for sharing.
My apartment has mostly gray mold all over the walls and ceilings and it was due to me being away from the apartment for a few months. I had my windows closed but had a ceiling fan on but it wasn't on high. I'm located in a very humid area. Will zinsser mold killing primer work getting rid of the mold? I have used vinegar to try to get rid of the mold... spray it on wall and ceiling and wait an hour before scrubbing it with a bristle brush. In the areas with a good amount of gray mold, I was able to remove maybe 50% of it. It would then always come back. However, the big areas with a lot of gray mold which is throughout 2 rooms... I barely removed anything at all. Would this mold killing primer be all I need to remove the mold? So I just paint over the ceilings and walls and that is it? I have a ton of mold in these 2 rooms... apartment is just these 2 rooms. I heard you first need to kill the mold first... so that would mean spray vinegar on every ceiling and wall area with gray mold... then scrub all the areas... and even though the gray mold is still clearly visible... you then wait maybe an hour before you go and paint the wall and ceiling with this? The thing is I have a lot of gray mold throughout the ceiling and wall in one room... the other room it's mostly on the walls. The wall and ceiling is cinderblock or possibly concrete I believe. Can you give advice on this?
Word to the wise, don't mix bleach and vinegar together in the hopes of getting the best of both worlds. I accidentally created a cloud of chlorine gas in my workshop and had to leg it out of there. Chemical warfare on my senses 😬
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.
Both tea-tree oil and cinnamon oil are great too... I usually use bleach to clean... then when that has done its job go back and use a 50/50 mix of vinegar and water... with a few drops of tea-tree and/or cinnamon oil to try and kill any spores off.
Oh my god. Now i know where i got my tuberculosis(maybe) and also having difficulty breathe at night. I cough alot and alot of mucus coming out of my lungs!! It is because of this! It’s in our ceiling and we also use double deck bed and i’m in top so basically the mold just near me!!! i can see it while i lay down.. i didn’t know this and then i did research about this and now i know!!!
Dude...forget bleach and vinegar.... That room needs gasoline and high explosives to kill that mold😳even then it seems like it might still try to eat ya😱how in the name of god you got that off is AMAZING 💖
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.
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! I can't help but wonder if you're either a professional bar tender/ mixologist, or perhaps a professional drinkist, who knows the proper terminology to use when making your beverage requisitions.🤔😁 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.
So...would two applications of bleach and then one application of vinegar as a “fixer” be best - 3 in all? What do you do with grout that was used to cover over black mold? Does all of it need to be removed first, then replaced?
Bleach only paint de mold and after few days mold appear again. The vinager kill the mould, spray vinager and clean it with microfibre cloth. Vinager is the best to kill de mold
OK Chlorine was used first in ww1 because it destroyed lung tissue. You don't need permenently scarred lungs, unless continuing to breathe is so uncahhlenging that you feel you should add to the challenge. I've chased myself out of rooms using vinegar, too. Epithelial tissue does grow from stem cells in a very few days. As you know from slashing your skin, smashing your cartilage, and cooking any tissue, scars are NEVER the same as tissue they replace.
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.
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.
I heard that bleach does not actually kill the spores like vinegar but vinegar is more mild so you need more effort. Vinegar is safe obviously on fabrics etc. I have had to use it on my car interior where the car has been sitting in lockdown.
Absolutely right. Bleach only removes surface layers but not kill the mould spores and its highly dangerous for our eyes, lungs and skin which it gets absorbed and taken through the bloodstream to all our organs causing eventual serious illnesses and cancers later in life. Vinegar works deep and powerful. Even after wiping off the vinegar, it will continue to penetrate the surface and continue destroying the mould spores. Try the cleaning strength vinegar in the laundry section of the supermarkets. Never dilute it, use it straight as its only got a certain percentage of acidity. And it wasnt fair to compare it to the man made caustic bleach. Bleach may look like it works faster but it doesnt remove spores. And everything about bleach is just too dangerous for us and the environment.
I'd appreciate it if you'd pin a comment mentioning how the bleach is useful to clean, but not kill mold. I feel like you're giving people the wrong information and harming them in the future where-as a simple pin, not even any editing or further work on your part, would save a lot of people a lot of problems with the amount of reach this video seems to have.
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
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!!
I just had a pipe break in my downstairs laundry room. Got a shop vac and got rid of most of the water in 20 minutes, but now it smells pretty damp. Hasn't been any standing water for 2 days, but now the damp smell is pretty strong. Been running a dehumidifier and a fan, but is that going to be enough? It's winter and my house is very dry. Water spill never got above one inch on the baseboards. Can I spray bleach along the baseboards, or is there something else I can do to end this moldy smell. I see no evidence of mold yet.
Don’t use bleach and ammonia together - that creates chlorine gas that could possibly kill you, or at the very least s seriously damage your lungs. It was used with devastating effects in World War 1.
Hi guys. Many thanks to the producer. questions. I have bought a sailing boat and has mold siting deep in the sikaflex.. Do you have any ideas as to not harm the sikaflex? One second question is why did you dilute the vinegar? Why not use it undiluted? and finally is it ok to mix it with soda? Would that make it stronger? Thanks you and thumbs up for the xelent vid.
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 .
Use vinegar that is undiluted, and try to get cleaning vinegar in the laundery section of supermarkets which is even more stronger. You must always wipe down vinegar after spraying it otherwise it can leave streaks. But even when wiped down the vinegar always continues to work and penetrate through the surfaces and continue killing the mould. Bleach does NOT kill mould, only removes the top surface and soon after the mould comes back. Always using natural products and safe for our lungs, skin and environment. As we absorb the dangerous bleach into our lungs and skin that goes to our bloodstream and carried all over our organs. Bleach is a dangerous chemical and really should not take its place in our homes or anywhere in our environments.
Always clean regularily to keep maintenance of mould growth. The usual causes and moisture and dampness. As these two continue to exist then so does mould growth. Air out all rooms and let the sunshine in. Dry clothes well before storing them. Dont let wet or damp clothes sit in baskets for days to be washed. And air out all rooms well daily to prevent steam and moisture in kitchens and bathrooms- to keep walls dry.
Bleach is NOT the answer for many mold issues. bleach ONLY works to remove mold on hard, impermeable surfaces like bathtub and shower surrounds or tiles. However, on porous surfaces like drywall or hardwood floors, it won't work to kill mold or keep it from coming back.
Sadly vinegar didn’t work for me. The smell was so awful and it only turned the mould to yellow. Bleach worked so well but the smell is really strong. So remember to wear your masks or full gear suit if possible 😅

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💕
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 ?
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
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!
Thank God. My son has seizures & can't abide bleach fumes. But he can't tolerate mold, either.
What else can we do to keep it away?
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.
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.
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.
I wouldn't use bleach and vinegar so closely together though - if they overlap the fumes can be hazardous!
I use beer. Don't clean with it. I just drink it and I forget about the mold. Works everytime!

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.
@J-rt9ezsource? Trust me bro.
I do a two day clean using both. I start by spraying all mould with vinegar and let that sit. The next day I spray everything with bleach with open windows and doors. I would never spray both on the same day for safety reasons. It works, with no scrubbing involved.
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!

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 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...
I have had success with bleach. While treating the shower I spilled some bleach on myself. Pubic crabs now gone. Thank you so much and my girlfriend is happy too.
👍
Hahaha hell yea 🙃
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
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 😂

Thank you, mold is often a problem, so thank for confirming I was doing it right. A really good demo. God bless you.
This always works except for the RUclips channels trying to sell you something saying bleach won’t work. Thanks 👍🏽
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!
Don’t be naive! Just because some cool guy is willing to be careless with his health doesn't mean there's any less of a risk. Doesn’t mean there’s any more of one necessarily either, but please do your own research. This guy is not a professional!
Of course they don't care cuz it's more money for them to spend
You can only see or feel the damage to your organs in the aftermath. What did u think was going to happen? 😂
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
@@MrDeanDog91wdym? You have to dilute the vinegar or bleach with water. Even in this video he’s using one part vinegar/bleach to one part water. Then you wipe it and dry it after

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
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.
Nice
You're the man
For the benefit of using natural products I'll be willing to apply another time vinegar if it works

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!!

@@nernatbentley3778 understandable if it’s on something like tile, but if you want to get it off of a painted surface, it’s best to use a solution of hot water, vinegar, and a bit of borax. Spray it on, scrub it, wipe it, spray again and let it sit for 10 minutes, and wipe it dry.
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
Do you have any recommendations on how to stop that ?

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
@@RigmorTalonbeard
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.
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.
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.

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.

What is the ceiling material?
Update??
You’re just removing the stain. Vinegar is better at truly removing it or peroxide. Just because the stain is gone doesn’t mean the mold is
My apartment has mostly gray mold all over the walls and ceilings and it was due to me being away from the apartment for a few months. I had my windows closed but had a ceiling fan on but it wasn't on high. I'm located in a very humid area. Will zinsser mold killing primer work getting rid of the mold? I have used vinegar to try to get rid of the mold... spray it on wall and ceiling and wait an hour before scrubbing it with a bristle brush. In the areas with a good amount of gray mold, I was able to remove maybe 50% of it. It would then always come back. However, the big areas with a lot of gray mold which is throughout 2 rooms... I barely removed anything at all. Would this mold killing primer be all I need to remove the mold? So I just paint over the ceilings and walls and that is it? I have a ton of mold in these 2 rooms... apartment is just these 2 rooms. I heard you first need to kill the mold first... so that would mean spray vinegar on every ceiling and wall area with gray mold... then scrub all the areas... and even though the gray mold is still clearly visible... you then wait maybe an hour before you go and paint the wall and ceiling with this? The thing is I have a lot of gray mold throughout the ceiling and wall in one room... the other room it's mostly on the walls. The wall and ceiling is cinderblock or possibly concrete I believe. Can you give advice on this?
Word to the wise, don't mix bleach and vinegar together in the hopes of getting the best of both worlds. I accidentally created a cloud of chlorine gas in my workshop and had to leg it out of there. Chemical warfare on my senses 😬

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.
Both tea-tree oil and cinnamon oil are great too...
I usually use bleach to clean... then when that has done its job go back and use a 50/50 mix of vinegar and water... with a few drops of tea-tree and/or cinnamon oil to try and kill any spores off.
Oh my god. Now i know where i got my tuberculosis(maybe) and also having difficulty breathe at night. I cough alot and alot of mucus coming out of my lungs!! It is because of this! It’s in our ceiling and we also use double deck bed and i’m in top so basically the mold just near me!!! i can see it while i lay down.. i didn’t know this and then i did research about this and now i know!!!
I hope your able to get rid of it, that stuff is no fun to be around
Dude...forget bleach and vinegar....

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.

So...would two applications of bleach and then one application of vinegar as a “fixer” be best - 3 in all? What do you do with grout that was used to cover over black mold? Does all of it need to be removed first, then replaced?

Bleach only paint de mold and after few days mold appear again. The vinager kill the mould, spray vinager and clean it with microfibre cloth. Vinager is the best to kill de mold

OK Chlorine was used first in ww1 because it destroyed lung tissue.
You don't need permenently scarred lungs, unless continuing to breathe is so uncahhlenging that you feel you should add to the challenge.
I've chased myself out of rooms using vinegar, too.
Epithelial tissue does grow from stem cells in a very few days. As you know from slashing your skin, smashing your cartilage, and cooking any tissue, scars are NEVER the same as tissue they replace.
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.
Amazing, I'm very impressed 👏🏼
Cleaning Ceiling I would use Vinigar. Bleach will drip and damage anything in the room...
Tried this yesterday and it works
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?
Vinegar is definitely better. Thanks for this video! (Pro tip; use gloves and a mask.) 👍🏻
I heard that bleach does not actually kill the spores like vinegar but vinegar is more mild so you need more effort. Vinegar is safe obviously on fabrics etc. I have had to use it on my car interior where the car has been sitting in lockdown.
Absolutely right.
Bleach only removes surface layers but not kill the mould spores and its highly dangerous for our eyes, lungs and skin which it gets absorbed and taken through the bloodstream to all our organs causing eventual serious illnesses and cancers later in life.
Vinegar works deep and powerful. Even after wiping off the vinegar, it will continue to penetrate the surface and continue destroying the mould spores. Try the cleaning strength vinegar in the laundry section of the supermarkets. Never dilute it, use it straight as its only got a certain percentage of acidity.
And it wasnt fair to compare it to the man made caustic bleach.
Bleach may look like it works faster but it doesnt remove spores. And everything about bleach is just too dangerous for us and the environment.
Great video bro
I'd appreciate it if you'd pin a comment mentioning how the bleach is useful to clean, but not kill mold. I feel like you're giving people the wrong information and harming them in the future where-as a simple pin, not even any editing or further work on your part, would save a lot of people a lot of problems with the amount of reach this video seems to have.

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?

You’re very welcome, I’m glad you have enjoyed the videos 👍
You shouldn't have diluted the vinegar. Diluted white vinegar will do better solo
Very impressive demonstration..
Hi.... Does the mold come back?
Great video!
Can I use a paper towel/tissue paper to wipe down the mold after using bleach? if I don't have a rag to work with?
I say do it again with full strength vinegar.
I just had a pipe break in my downstairs laundry room. Got a shop vac and got rid of most of the water in 20 minutes, but now it smells pretty damp. Hasn't been any standing water for 2 days, but now the damp smell is pretty strong. Been running a dehumidifier and a fan, but is that going to be enough? It's winter and my house is very dry. Water spill never got above one inch on the baseboards. Can I spray bleach along the baseboards, or is there something else I can do to end this moldy smell. I see no evidence of mold yet.
How are the results today? I'm curious as I am using bleach tomorrow to clean my cement floor and walls with bleachq
Don’t use bleach and ammonia together - that creates chlorine gas that could possibly kill you, or at the very least s seriously damage your lungs. It was used with devastating effects in World War 1.
Thank you for this video! It was very helpful!!

Hi guys. Many thanks to the producer. questions. I have bought a sailing boat and has mold siting deep in the sikaflex.. Do you have any ideas as to not harm the sikaflex? One second question is why did you dilute the vinegar? Why not use it undiluted? and finally is it ok to mix it with soda? Would that make it stronger? Thanks you and thumbs up for the xelent vid.
Thanks Bill. Very practical.
Yes, I needed this I hate having mold I think im going to use bleach vinegar and baking soda so it doesnt come back in a long time.
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.
Great video! Do you recommend just spraying on vinegar on walls and NOT wiping it off on to prevent future growth?
Use vinegar that is undiluted, and try to get cleaning vinegar in the laundery section of supermarkets which is even more stronger.
You must always wipe down vinegar after spraying it otherwise it can leave streaks. But even when wiped down the vinegar always continues to work and penetrate through the surfaces and continue killing the mould. Bleach does NOT kill mould, only removes the top surface and soon after the mould comes back.
Always using natural products and safe for our lungs, skin and environment. As we absorb the dangerous bleach into our lungs and skin that goes to our bloodstream and carried all over our organs.
Bleach is a dangerous chemical and really should not take its place in our homes or anywhere in our environments.
Always clean regularily to keep maintenance of mould growth.
The usual causes and moisture and dampness. As these two continue to exist then so does mould growth.
Air out all rooms and let the sunshine in. Dry clothes well before storing them. Dont let wet or damp clothes sit in baskets for days to be washed.
And air out all rooms well daily to prevent steam and moisture in kitchens and bathrooms- to keep walls dry.
You are a legend!! Keep up the good work 👍👍
Bleach is NOT the answer for many mold issues. bleach ONLY works to remove mold on hard, impermeable surfaces like bathtub and shower surrounds or tiles. However, on porous surfaces like drywall or hardwood floors, it won't work to kill mold or keep it from coming back.
Why?
that was so perfect! settled a debate in my house!
He hardly wiped the vinegar side.
Long term, does vinegar prevent mould coming back? Bleach?
Yes vinegar keeps it from coming back or at least that's what Google says😂
It will come back even with holy water if you don’t stop the moisture
Keep it sry and ventilated or it will come back
Thank you for the comparison it’s helpful
Sadly vinegar didn’t work for me. The smell was so awful and it only turned the mould to yellow. Bleach worked so well but the smell is really strong. So remember to wear your masks or full gear suit if possible 😅
What did you have mold on
what is the name of the medicine for cleaning glass fungus
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.
Hey I have a knockdown ceiling texture, how do I remove mold from it ????
You mus wear a mask when you're disturbing mold.
It’s probably not toxic. Not all black moulds affect ur health
Beth Roden you're an expert I see. Internet advice at its best.
@@Own7000 You're name is literally a phone app game and you're giving advice? FOH child
@@HagakureJunkie what has my name to do with anything? Also, if you are criticizing anyone, make sure that, at least, you know how to write correctly. The correct form isn't "you're name", but "your name". Yes, the "kid" with clash of clans name just schooled you. Just fyi, I work with cleaning products, testing their effectiveness for a company in the industry. So, shut your tiny mouth that is surely accompanied by your tiny brain, ridiculous troll.
Yeah let’s just leave a huge patch of mold there because a respirator is not available.
