Effective ways to get rid of mold around windows – natural solutions
Preparation of the solutions:
Vinegar solution: In the sprinkler bottle, mix 1 part of the white vinegar with 1 water. Vinegar acts as a natural antifungal agent and helps in removing mold.
Solution with oxidized water: You can also use 3% solution of oxidized water. It should be sprayed directly on the mold, because it has disinfecting properties and can effectively eliminate fungi.
Soda: If the mold is firmly rooted, prepare a paste from baking soda and a little water. The paste should have a consistency of a dense gruel.
Removal of the mold:
Spraying the area of the mold: Use one of the prepared solutions and spray it with mold. Allow the solution to work for a few minutes to dissolve the fungus spores.
Cleaning: Use a cloth or sponge to gently wipe the place where the mold is visible. If you use a soda paste, apply it to a soiled surface and leave it for a few minutes, then wipe it out.
Accurate drying: After removing the mold, dry the surface thoroughly. Moisture is the main factor conducive to the development of mold, so it is important that the place remains dry.
Additional steps:
Disinfection: If the mold has returned after a while, repeat the cleaning process from time to time to keep the place clean.
Ventilation: It is important to take care of proper ventilation in the place where the mold appeared. Often moisturized and poorly ventilated rooms promote the development of mushrooms. Regular airing will help prevent a recurring problem.
Serving and storage tips:
Cleaning regularity: Keeping windows and their surroundings clean is crucial to prevent mold from reappearing. Regular cleaning once a month can help avoid major problems.
Moisture Prevention: To prevent the development of mold in the future, make sure that the windows are well sealed and do not allow moisture to get in. Installing a good ventilation system in the room is equally important.
Variants:
Tea oil: Adding a few drops of tea oil to a solution with vinegar will strengthen the antifungal effect, because this oil has natural antiseptic properties.
Remove mold from curtain rods and window frames: Use the same solutions and cleaning methods to reach other areas around the window that may be prone to mold, such as carnishes or framise.
