Results
And there you have it, you have now eliminated all mold naturally :-)
Easy, convenient and efficient, isn't it?
Tea tree essential oil, white vinegar or hydrogen peroxide, and a last pass with bicarbonate ...
After this double attack, I promise you that you are not ready to see mold again!
To prevent mold from reappearing a few weeks later, I advise you to use a dehumidifier, to reduce the humidity in the room in question.
If you don't want to buy one, you can also do it yourself by following this tip.
These tips work WITHOUT using bleach or a commercial product loaded with toxic substances.
So of course you can also get good results with bleach, but it's a far from natural product that I don't like to use ... unless it is really the only solution.
Why does it work?
Tea tree essential oil: tea tree essential oil kills mold the first time. Thanks to its powerful anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties, it is particularly effective in eliminating mold. The only downside is that it costs more than vinegar or hydrogen peroxide.
White vinegar: white vinegar is as effective as tea tree essential oil, and much cheaper. It is a recognized antibacterial that can also kill mold. If you're not a fan of the scent, I recommend adding a few drops of your favorite essential oil. Several studies have shown that 5% pure vinegar kills 82% of molds.
Oxygenated water: Antifungal, antibacterial and antiviral, hydrogen peroxide is an excellent solution against mold. Hydrogen peroxide is effective because it releases oxygen, thereby breaking down molds through the oxidation process.
What are the dangers of mold?
