In this tutorial by Natural Cures on YouTube, we’ll explore five effective solutions to combat mold and keep your home healthy.
Solutions:
- Tea Tree Oil
- Vinegar
- Soap Water
- Chlorine Bleach
- Hydrogen Peroxide
Directions:
1. Tea Tree Oil
Mix 100ml (about ½ cup) each of tea tree oil and white vinegar until well combined. Add 500ml (about 2 cups) of water and transfer the solution to a spray bottle. Scrub the affected area to remove the mold, then spray the solution all over the surface. Allow it to sit for about 5 hours before repeating the application until the mold disappears completely.
2. Vinegar
Scrape off and remove the mold using a brush, then apply white distilled vinegar to the affected area using a sponge. Repeat until the mold disappears. This method not only gets rid of the mold but also leaves no stains on the surface.
3. Soap Water
As soon as you spot mold growing on any surface, act quickly to prevent it from spreading. Use a scrubber or salt paper to remove the mold, then wash the area with soapy water. Repeat this every day to prevent the mold from regrowing. Use detergent for a more effective solution.
4. Chlorine Bleach
Sprinkle chlorine bleach on the surface or affected area, then wipe it with a scrubber or sponge. Repeat as needed. This solution is one of the most effective ways to get rid of mold completely.
5. Hydrogen Peroxide
Mix 1 cup of water and 1 tsp of hydrogen peroxide until combined, then transfer the solution to a spray bottle. Spray this solution on the affected wall or surface and let it sit for about 10 to 15 minutes. Mix ½ tsp of baking soda and 1 cup of water until incorporated, and set it aside. Clean the sprayed solution, then spray the baking soda mixture on the wall and repeat as needed.
