How to Stop Mold in its Tracks
Wherever there’s moisture, there’s the potential for mold. You want to address it immediately too, as it can be a hazardous and expensive issue to take care of if left unchecked. If you discover fuzzy-textured stains that are brown, black or green, you can be fairly certain you’ve got mold.
Here are tips below to avoid and deal with it:
If you spot water damage, let it dry out for 1-2 days using dehumidifiers and fans.
Fill a spray bottle with vinegar, and spray it directly on mold. Let it sit for an hour before scrubbing it off with a wire brush.
Have your HVAC inspected and cleaned by a professional.
Don't let children help with the mold cleanup.
Don’t patch or paint mold.
If you find mold in multiple places of a room, time to call in the experts.
