no to bleach

The first remedy that is usually thought of to eliminate is the use of bleach. But it is wrong, and the reason is simple. Although bleach is used for many household tasks,  it is not the most suitable product for eliminating mold  since it does not attack deeply. This would only lead to superficial cleaning of the affected surfaces, leaving the spores behind anyway. And the mold forms again after a short time. Bleach works well on non-porous surfaces, thus tiles  ,  etc. We avoid its use on porous and delicate surfaces, such as  stucco, wood, granite and marble  . Not only will we not have a deep cleaning but, as it is a chemical product, it only risks damaging the surfaces irreparably.

Here’s what you should use to get rid of mold on walls and other surfaces.

White vinegar against mold in the house

Foolproof bleach is therefore not so infallible when we have mold in the house. There is a completely natural and therefore safe to use ingredient that can remove it   effortlessly.

This is white wine vinegar.  To clean surfaces with vinegar, you must accompany it with  baking soda and lemon juice  . All three should be boiled together to create a mixture that will be an excellent  odor neutralizer  .

To  remove mold,  we rub this paste on the affected surfaces, such as the  shower  or  bathtub  . You can also spray vinegar on the surfaces to be treated. However, remember to let the room air out after treatment.

Like  baking soda, white wine vinegar  has  disinfecting and degreasing properties  . Simply mix it with water and treat affected surfaces. However, remember that it is important to let fresh air circulate after using these products, even if they are natural.

Baking soda, vinegar and lemon  are absolutely ecological products and safe to use, both for the health, for the environment and for our health,  but if they do not solve the mold problem  in a short time, it is advisable to call a specialist.
