Growing in the crevices and cracks of your bathroom, mold is not something desirable to have around. Let’s save that for the science experiments.
Anytime mold is mentioned, it’s not uncommon to think of the deadly type of mold, but unless you have had flooding or leaky pipes you are probably dealing with a nuisance mold. However if the mold covers a large area, call in the professional for safety.
To make a mold killing cleaning solution, you can mix 1 cup of bleach with a gallon of water. Clean using standard cleaning methods. You might use an old toothbrush to get into the cracks and crevices. For stubborn areas it may take several applications.
Once your remove the mold, make sure that you have solved any moisture problems that led to the mold in the first place. Mold needs moisture to thrive.
It was once fashionable to have carpeted bathrooms. However modern trends lead away from this because the carpet does hold moisture and other unpleasant odors in the bathroom. You might also want to invest in a bathroom fan to help circulate the air and remove moisture.
Once you have addressed your bathroom, you might want to look at other areas of your house, such as the basement or the laundry room. You might need to put fans or dehumidifiers in those areas as well.
