2
  • Mold is a common problem for homeowners, which
    can seriously affect the health of humans as well
    as their pets. Headaches, joint pain, red eyes,
    blurred vision, appetite swings, asthma,
    congestion, skin problems, etc. these can be
    caused by mold.

3
  • Mold can appear anywhere in your house on walls,
    carpet, floors, wood, in bathroom and kitchen,
    etc. A plumbing issue or a tiny leak can cause
    significant growth of mold because of increased
    humidity. If your carpet has gotten wet because
    of a flood or any other reason and did not dry
    properly, be prepared to mold spreading.

  • However, if you simply clean up mold but moisture
    in your home will be pretty high, you wont
    resolve a mold problem. It will just appear a bit
    later. Here are some ways on professional mold
    removal.

    inspection, remediation, disinfection, and will
    take care of your property so it will look like
    it was. After this, you can be sure there is no
    way for mold to spread because of antimicrobial
    treatment.

  • 2. Ammonia
  • If you have mold on the bathroom sink or door,
    kitchen counters or in the shower, ammonia can do
    a pretty effective job. It is absolutely
    affordable and easy to buy in the nearest store.
    However, if were talking about sheetrock or
    chipboard, the effect of ammonia is not so good.

  • Before the procedure, wear a respirator and
    gloves. Dont forget to open all windows and
    doors. Then do the following
  • Mix ammonia and water (50/50)
  • Fill this combination in a spray bottle and spray
    it on the affected areas
  • Wait 5-10 minutes
  • Use a scrub brush and wash these areas
  • Wipe clean and repeat if theres any need.

  • 3. Bleach
  • Bleach is effective in fighting any kind of mold.
    As ammonia, bleach is also cheap and easily
    accessible. However, when it comes to wood or
    cement block, bleach will do a lousy job. It
    cant reach mold roots entirely.

9
  • Before using bleach, wear N95 respirator and
    gloves, open windows and let some air to get rid
    of the unpleasant smell. Then, mix 1 cup of
    bleach and at least a gallon of water. Use a
    spray bottle to pour bleach solution onto mold
    affected areas.

  • Use a sponge or a small brush and wipe all
    affected areas and do mold cleanup. There is no
    need to wash out your work area. The bleach needs
    time to disinfect and prevent mold growth in the
    future.

    prepared to an unpleasant smell during the

    simple dont use a spray bottle, but pour the
    vinegar onto some towel or brush and thoroughly
    wipe all mold infected areas. Give it an hour or
    more to dry.

  • Then, with a wet towel clean each area again and
    again. For hard to reach places, use an old
    toothbrush and let it dry. It is very easy! As an
    alternative, try mold inspection Boca Raton.

  • 5. Baking soda

    cheap alternative to bleach and ammonia. Besides,
    you can buy it in the nearest grocery store and
    be sure in its safety (especially if you have
    children or pets).

15
  • To prepare a mold killing solution, mix baking
    soda and water (50/50). Paste it on affected
    areas and let air-dry. Then, you need to use a
    small brush to clean and scrub everything.

16
  • Then, mix 2 tablespoons of baking soda with 2
    cups of water and pour it into a spray bottle.
