How to Kill Household Mold

[@type88network]

This guy makes me feel so peaceful about something that was scaring the shit out of me.

[@blindkimberly1360]

Wow. Your comment section is very entertaining. For one thing chlorine bleach is absolutely NOT salt water. Omg. And they keep harping on the use of a fan. In your video you said using a fan for air circulation with heat and a dehumidifier is key. It’s also true. One of the reasons the “experts” recommend ceiling fans in every room. I think some of the people making comments about your video missed the part where you said small areas of mold. If it’s a large area or is mixed with sewage you’d need a professional. I find your video very informative and accurate. Thank you.

[@MoldAdvice1]

Well this guy in obviously not a Mold guy. Here is the facts..Never dry any mold with fans..You cross contaminated the entire area and disperse the spores, and they could get into your AC return and now you're Whole house is a mold house..You never spray anything on a mold surface without first HEPA vacuuming, some mold speci's Blum when hit with moisture or in this case a spray.. Spraying a affected area is the last step of any protocol..The biggest myth is once you kill the mold your fine..Dead mold vs live mold or viable mold works on the body the exact same way, no difference..And finially..The mold you see growing on building materials or that cardboard box did not start there, it started with elevated mold spores in the air and with moisture it attached to the wall or whatever building product you see it started collinizing to where you can see it because of the proteins in the materials, (food source)..The key to properly fixing surface mold problems is to find what area's are affected by Bio-aersol Air testing, then HEPA vacuum, then wet wipe with a fungul solution, and most importantly run air srcubbers to take out the spores that cause the issue in the first place, and implement dehumidifiers to control the moisture..Not fans.. I've been a indoor Environmentalist and remediator for 20 years..Pass on the commercials on TV and the internet and hire a professional, because it's not What you see making you sick, It's what you can't see...

Good Morning Jerry, Thanks for your notes and comments. I guess you'll have to take up your concerns with the mold abatement professionals I consulted in making this video. I've been teaching people about mold abatement for 15 years, always in consultation with professional mold people here in Canada. Everything in this video was cleared by them. I've never had any technical criticisms like yours before. Why would you rate your opinions over those of licensed mold abatement professionals that advise me and approve the content I create? Take care and thanks for watching. Steve

I'm in the tropics. There aren't remediation services here. As soon as rainy season is here the mold and mildew begin to pop up. And I break out in hives. Tried vinegar first. Wiped of the ceiling rafters and concrete walls. Stayed away for a while. Then started smelling that musty smell again recently. It was in my dresser . Had to wash everything, take the cardboard covering of the back and wiped it down with Borax. The smell was gone. Now it's started raining again and it's back. What can I do?

[@JoleneCatanne]

Both of you have incredibly valuable information regarding mold and removal, and I am grateful for so much info about this important topic. I do believe that most people truly have no real idea of just how dangerous and prevalent of an issue that mold really is. I live in Southern Louisiana where the mold issues is epic horrible, with high, high humidity. We grow all molds here in every form and color!!! lol. I have found an incredibly easy and 100% effective and cheap method for dealing with all mold issues... For baskets, walls, shower etc, I simply drown it in clorox first and then after it dries, drown it in Lysol ll Brand, which 'KILLS' mold. This method WORKS, is cheap and easy to get the supplies. The mold never comes back. I wish everyone knew this. I came across your video, because I am looking for a way to remove mold from an antique lace table cover that my Grandmother gave me over 20 years back. Otherwise, I wouldn't have ever found your vid. Thank you for your work Sir, beautiful vid.

Keep in mind as you watch this and read all the comments - mold can be killed, but dead mold spores are toxic too. They must be removed. Not a simple task.

I've been having more problems with my asthma lately so I decided to check one of my closets that I rarely use because my computer desk is in front of it. And there was a brown stain on the ceiling and on the floor the carpet was damp and there was some type of black mold on the drywall and underneath the carpet. (and man did it stink, when I sucked up the moisture from the carpet, very scary especially since I have asthma) Here's hoping my frigging landlord actually does something about it, I've done all I could from using my carpet cleaner, spraying the area with disinfectint that kills mold, and running my mini de humidifier.

[@welsch9]

What about ripping out the drywall that is contaminated and replacing it with new sheetrock?

[@rickmurray7123]

That's OK, but you need to prevent the mold spores from flying around as you work. One way is to spray a soap solution, about 1: 10 mixture, and keep it wet as you work. The soap greatly increases the wetting ability of the water. You need to remove ALL the mold, everywhere it is found. Killing it is not good enough because even dead mold spores are still toxic. They just don't multiply.

I was looking for someone who did not recommend bleach for treatment of black mold on pourous materials.. because I knew that was not the right treatment. this video was very professional and validated some of the things I did know about black mold.

My common sense suggest he indicates increasing ventilation to dry out the affected material.

I've got a rather small mold problem with small black spheres that look to be growing on only the very top of my carpet's strands. My understanding has always been that a moldy carpet is effectively lost, simply because it's too difficult to properly clean it out once it's gotten mold. Too pours, hugs water too much. THere's an inconsequentially low chance of a large amount of water occuring in the same spot again. My question is, is carpet theoretically salvageable by cleaning or should it be removed?

[@moakley]

Carpet needs to be turned back and checked. Your subfloor could be wet and the underlay under the carpet could also have mould growth or is damp. If you have mould growth on the back of the carpet then the carpet is non restorable and needs to be replaced.

During a routine termite inspection the report came back clean of termites but we have mold growing in the crawl space under neath the house. The mold is on the ground as well as up on the joists but it's only growing in the front area of the house which faces east and no mold is present anywhere else that we can find. I guess we should find the source of the mold first and then remove it. However, we live in Florida and it is of course very humid here. Why would mold be growing only in one area and not the other. Should we call a plumber first to see if we have any water leaks? Just not sure where to start but want to get rid of this mold asap and keep it gone. Can you give us any advice? Thank you!

Without proper airflow in a bathroom you will have growth forsure. If the microbial growth is on drywall it needs to be contained and removed.

Bleach may not kill mold but the main ingredient will kill mycotoxins something that's not mentioned in this film clip

[@atari7001]

This is absolutely not true. Bleach can stimulate a mold population into a stress response, which can cause it to produce MORE mycotoxins. 1% ammonia has been proven to deactivate the mycotoxin molecule. I know, I tried both and there is a clear difference.

[@victoryleo8310]

atari7001 what about vinegar

[@atari7001]

victory Leo there was a major study to determine what the mechanism behind ammonia’s detoxification nature is. Apparently ammonia opens a ring in the toxin structure that allows the toxin to tightly bind to a neighboring molecule in the contaminated material. Neutralizing it with something like vinegar afterwards closes the ring and makes the bond tight. I don’t think you could get this detoxification mechanism to work without opening the ring first with ammonia.

[@nonsibicunctis]

The spores of mould are so small that you won't see them with the naked eye. It is impossible to remove all mould because it is carried in the air and so, even if your place *was* completely free of it at one stage, the minute that you open a door or window mould spores will enter. That is one of the reasons you must be very careful when removing it in any room - it is very easy to disturb spores and inadvertently transfer them to another room. Bleach is often used and many proprietary products include it. Bleach doesn't actually kill mould spores. What happens is that the mould growth which is what you are actually seeing is removed by the bleach but the spores from which it grows will still be in the surface of the ceiling or whatever and so the growth will eventually come back. So, the moral of the story is to use a proper mould removal agent and be careful about your mops, rags, or whatever that you use. In addition provide good ventilation and make sure that areas are dry. Moisture, darkness and a lack of airflow or what causes mould to grow. A cheap and effective mould combatant is household vinegar mixed 8 parts vinegar to 2 parts water. It will remove both the mould growth AND the spores.

Why do you recommend chemical products, when I find countless articles and videos on killing mold, and they recommend Borax, claiming it kills the mold spores? I just sprayed it on my cold hall's half bath where the walls (flat paint drywall) showed many somewhat dark spots. They hardly looked like the hideous photos shown on these videos. I went through a thorough spraying (1 c. Borax to 1 gal. water) where I then scrubbed the walls with a kitchen brush. I did this more than once. I then sprayed a cotton cloth with the Borax solution, and horizontally wiped the walls, both to get rid of the vertical lines that form from leakage after scrubbing, and to more thoroughly get a surface of Borax on it. I spent a lot of time doing this, and was as thorough as possible. However, after drying, it looked great, but I still smell that mold smell! Every article I read and video i watched said it would kill the odor. Did I do something wrong? By wiping the walls with the wet Borax rag, perhaps I could have wiped off too much Borax? I doubt that would be the case, but I shouldn't be left with a smell.
