You will find several household products you are able to use for cleaning black mold. This is a
short list of commonly used items that are safe to use.

Mold is really a fungus that thrives in moist or humid conditions. It could be discovered in locations
from the house that remains damp, for example the bathroom, kitchen or basement. Mold can be
damaging to the surface it grows on, discoloring or corroding it. It can also affect people with
allergies and can cause a fatal lung infection if breathed in. The key to mold control is moisture
control.

It is essential to dry water damaged areas and items within 24-48 hours to prevent mold growth. If
mold is a problem in your house, clean up the mold and get rid of the excess water or moisture.
Fix leaky plumbing or other sources of h2o. Wash mold off tough surfaces with detergent and
water, and dry totally. Absorbent materials (for example ceiling tiles & carpet) that become moldy
may have to be replaced. These house remedies can help get rid of mold effectively.

1. Cleaning Black Mold With Detergent and Water

You are able to use a solution of detergent and water to clean off surface mold from non-porous
material such as glass and tiles. Detergent is not a mold killer, the solution is meant for scrubbing
off the visible mold from the surfaces. When mold grows on non-porous material, it's good enough
to have all the surface molds cleaned thoroughly. It's not necessary to kill the mold. For cleaning
black mold off outdoor cushions, mix a gallon of water and 1/4 cup of soap in the bucket. You can
stir the mix around with your hand and the sponge.

The mixture should be slightly sudsy. Scrub the cushions with the sponge. You can scrub as tough
as you like until you get the mold and mildew stains off. The detergent should kill the mold and
mildew while it's breaking down the stains. Dowse any remaining stains with lemon juice. You may
still have some pale stains remaining on the cushions once you have finished cleaning them.
These should be saturated with lemon juice. Let the cushions dry in the sun. The lemon juice will
lift the remainder of the stain out from the cushion using the sunlight as a catalyst.

2. Cleaning Black Mold With Baking Soda

Sprinkle baking soda over moldy carpet to absorb the mold and freshen the air. Leave it on the
carpet for as little as 20 minutes or overnight. Use a vacuum cleaner with an empty bag for
maximum efficiency to vacuum up the baking soda. Baking Soda paste can be used to clean tile
floors as well. It's suggested that you mix enough water with the baking soda to create a soft
paste, then apply it to the trouble spots on your tile, scrub, and rinse with a vinegar/water mixture
to neutralize the baking soda to avoid residue.
3. Cleaning Black Mold With Borax Powder (this one is possibly the easiest!)

Use a solution of 1 cup of borax powder to 1 cup of h2o to mop floors. Scrub the black mold with
the disinfecting solution over a small area. Wipe away the fluid and scum of mold and disinfecting
solution with old rags, but do not rinse the cleansed area. Leaving some borax behind will help
prevent the black mold from returning. Repeat steps until you have cleansed all the black mold.
Leave your work area open to ventilation and exposed to the sun if possible. This will help speed
the drying process and blow out any spores in the air. That will also help reduce the possibility of a
recurrence of black mold.

4. Cleaning Black Mold With Vinegar

Clean mold on hard surfaces using a solution of equal parts vinegar and water. Fill a plastic spray
bottle with the solution. Spray surfaces in the kitchen and bathroom with the solution and scrub the
area with a tough brush. The latest trend in mold and mildew control is the shower and bathroom
sprays that use once you're done taking a shower. These products work just fine, but they act on
the same principle as the vinegar spray. Vinegar can substitute just about any bathroom cleaning
product sold today, with the exception of heavy duty abrasive cleaners like Comet.

5. Cleaning Black Mold With Chlorine Bleach

Use a solution of one part chlorine bleach to one part h2o to clean carpeting and upholstery that
has been affected by mold. Soak a sponge or cloth in the solution and swipe it across the mold to
trap the spores in the cloth. NOTE... While leach will clean the black mold, it will not kill it on
porous surfaces. You must still use a mold killer before or after you clean the black mold with
chlorine bleach.

6. Cleaning Black Mold With Hydrogen Peroxide
Get a bottle of hydrogen peroxide with 3% concentration from your local drug stores. Transfer the
hydrogen peroxide into a spray bottle and spray it onto the mold infected surface. Leave it for at
least 15 minutes for hydrogen peroxide to take action and kill the molds. After that, scour the area
to remove all the mold and mold stains.

For stubborn mold in tough to reach places, like the grout of tiles, use full-strength hydrogen
peroxide. Simply apply a number of capfuls to the affected area, allow it to sit for 15 minutes and
scrub with an old toothbrush. Note... Keep the spray bottle of remaining hydrogen peroxide in dark
place as light reduces the effectiveness of hydrogen peroxide. For more effective mold removal,
you may consider using hydrogen peroxide with vinegar during the cleaning process.

Hydrogen peroxide is effective at killing molds as it has the elements of anti-bacterial, anti-viral
and anti-fungal. It is a much safer mold cleaner as compared to bleach because it does not
produce toxic residue or toxic fumes that harm the environment. Hydrogen peroxide is good at
cleaning mold on almost any materials including clothes, walls, bathroom fixtures and other
kitchen appliances. For removable rugs, lay them outside on a sunny day with the back of the
carpeting exposed to the sun. Mix one part of 3% hydrogen peroxide with five parts h2o. Spray the
solution onto the back of the carpet and allow the sun to hit the carpeting for a day. The
combination of direct sunlight and hydrogen peroxide will kill mold spores.
7. Cleaning Black Mold With Ammonia

Make an ammonia solution using a ratio of 1 part of ammonia to 1 part of h2o. Fill a spray bottle
with ammonia solution and spray it onto the moldy surfaces. Leave the solution to sit for a number
of hours before rinsing with h2o. After rinsing or wiping with water, allow the areas to dry
completely. For vinyl seats like in your boat, combine 1/4 cup of ammonia with 1 cup of water, and
pour this solution into a spray bottle. Spray the mold with this mixture, and scrub it with a bristle
brush. Rinse the solution off with clean water to remove it from the vinyl seats. If you still notice
mold on the seats, use rubbing alcohol.

NOTE... Ammonia, similar to bleach kills mold growing on non-porous materials like bathtubs,
tiles, countertops, and glass. However ammonia is not an effective killer for mold growing in
porous materials like drywall and woods. Ammonia is a harsh chemical, it emits toxic fumes when
mixed with bleach. Use ammonia with care.

8. Cleaning Black Mold With Liquid Laundry Detergent

Pour two cups of cold h2o and 1 tbsp. liquid laundry soap into a bowl. Mix it up vigorously with a
whisk to create thick suds. Dip a rag into the bowl to scoop out the suds. Rub the suds gently onto
the moldy carpet. Switch to clean portions from the rag and apply more suds often. Rinse the
carpeting with a rag and plain water. Blot thoroughly with a dry rag to remove excessive moisture.
Mix 1 gallon of warm h2o and 1/2 cup borax powder into a bucket if the mold remains. Dip a scrub
brush into the borax solution and scrub the carpet until the mold is gone. Rinse the carpet with a
rag and plain water, and dry thoroughly with a clean rag.

9. Cleaning Black Mold With A Homemade Disinfectant Spray

Once all of the mold has been cleaned, use a disinfectant spray to purify the area. In a plastic
spray bottle, combine 1 cup of distilled (or spring) h2o, 1 cup of 91% isopropyl alcohol and the
juice of a couple average lemons. The solution is safe enough to spray into the air and does not
harm surfaces that it comes into contact with. Store the spray bottle in the refrigerator and use
within a few weeks. This will give your house the sterile smell of a doctors office as well as a
'Lemon Pledge' hint creating the illusion of 'dusting all day'!

10. Cleaning Black Mold With Grapefruit Seed Extract

Most households do not have Grapefruit Seed Extract in the cupboard but it's readily available.
Combine 20 drops of grapefruit seed extract to about 1 cup of water will make a useful mold killing
solution. Simply squirt the solution on moldy surfaces while wiping with a soft cloth to remove mold
and the harmless, light residue will prevent it from coming back.

11. Cleaning Black Mold With Citric Acid
Your local Whole Foods or co-op should have crystallized citric acid on hand and it is relatively
inexpensive. Use about 1 cup of acid to 1.5 gallons of hot water. You are able to wring out your
mop a little and spread it on lightly, but the chances of it evaporating before you get around to
scrubbing increase when you use less. Soak the floor(tile floors only) if you have a large room and
need time to do all the scrubbing. Letting the acid soak a little will also give it time to break up
mineral deposits, dirt, rust and of course the black mold.

You will need to rinse a number of times with citric acid, it does not come up as easily as other
products but it's much safer around small children. Cleaning a tile floor with citric acid is not only
environmentally friendly, it's incredibly effective. You may already be familiar with the orange hand
cleaner products, they use citric acid for cleaning as well.

For removable rugs, lay them outside on a sunny day with the back of the carpeting exposed to the sun. Mix one part of 3% hydrogen peroxide with five parts h2o.

Mix 1 gallon of warm h2o and 1/2 cup borax powder into a bucket if the mold remains. Dip a scrub brush into the borax solution and scrub the carpet until the mold is gone.
