This idiot tried to get rid of Mold...

Trying to get rid of mold in our home was very hard. I was in a mess until I went and searched. But even an Idiot like me can do this, if you follow the basic rules, with paying attention to the safety rules, like not breathing in the Spores or touching the Mold with bare hands. If you have mold [or mould] in your home I suggest you get the information from the same site. Take your time and read ALL the details and make sure of what you are doing.

The site I found has the answers to do the job of stopping the mold [mould], cleaning the surfaces and preventing any reappearance of the mold. Just using household cleaners [& bleach] will do the job.

You should be aware that all mold can be dangerous and should be removed ASAP with adequate safety measures taken  to stop you breathing in the spores. Moisture left in any house or room will allow mold to grow very quickly and is a health hazard. Get the repairs to any water leaks done before you start any cleaning of the moldy surfaces. If you not a handy man or D.I.Y. expert consult a plumber and/or qualified trade person to carry out the repairs. Other wise you may find yourself back with more mold very soon.

To clean mold [or mould] up is easy to do, if you follow the guide and protect yourself and your breathing the spores from the mold. These are very dangerous and can give you health many problems. Not only breathing and bronchitis, you can get anything from heart disease to cancer from the mold. And you can't even see the spores when they enter your body. Even just touching the mold can be dangerous, so get gloves and a face mask.

Also see that the area is well ventilated and all the wet areas are dry and any water leaks to the building and the water pipes are repaired before you start the cleaning process.

Remember, if an idiot like me can clean up a moldy house, you can...
