damn i wish i knew this a week ago.

What I don’t understand is that you must not use bleach cause it contains water and water feeds the mold. But the mixture of borax or common dish soap plus WATEE is advised 😳🥸🤔 Help me out please

You need 8% hydrogen peroxide. You don’t say anything about self protection or vacuuming the item/area with a HEPA filter vac before begining. Watch Michael Rubino’s You Tube video!!

10 sq ft of mold is a lot of mold 1:46

Correction: Standard grocery store bleach is 5% sodium hypochlorite. The concentrated bleach is between 8-12%.

I ues bleach on mold on white silicone around the shower in a few places, after moving in a another house. I can tell you that the mold has not come back and this was done 8 months ago , so bleach works and kills the mold spores 👍👍👍.

I am wondering why you would argue that bleach doesn't treat the "root" system of mold but then tell people to use hydrogen peroxide. The same stuff applies for vinegar and peroxide. The vinegar is an acid and the peroxide is a base. Bleach is just a higher pH. The reason you have to get a "commercial" version of the peroxide is because the concentration is too low whereas the locally available bleach would be effective enough at its 2 percent concentration. The peroxide you have in your hands is also mostly water and by your logic would "feed the mold" the same can be said for the vinegar. Do you have a scientific reason why we shouldn't use bleach on mold? In the microbiology lab I found that sodium hypochlorite solutions were most effective against not only mold but bacteria as well. Similar peroxide was not as effective. I would argue that the homeowners calling you did not let the bleach soak into the porous material and did not remove the moisture feeding the mold growth as you mentioned. but it wasn't the bleach's fault. And PLEASE do not FAN A MOLD SOURCE. That is the best way to spread spores. Seeing as your customers have not effectively killed the mold I am sure even with the peroxide solution they won't let it soak in and would then be spreading spores around. DEHUMIDIFY THE AREA! Don't fan stuff around!

great info ! thank you!

You do understand that vinegar even 30% is a water based product? You do understand that hydrogen peroxide is sold as a water base product. So bleach will only clean a hard non porous surface? Help me to understand. From webMD ..There are solutions available that are advertised as “pure” hydrogen peroxide. But these household options are made up of only 3% hydrogen peroxide and 97% water. Food grade or industrial-strength solutions have 35% or more hydrogen peroxide (and 65% water) and are extremely dangerous. These are not typically kept in homes...

What about what to use on roofs of houses...ir you spray bleech is it toxic and comes back?

So water from bleach is bad but water from; dishwashing liquid and water is good. Got it

Says bleach has water in it, to use vinegar instead 😱 like vinegar not full of water. also neither will penetrate into sheet rock and inside wood framing. Better to just get professional mold remediation chemicals. Some things just don't work using natural products.

Do you scrub the surfaces before you hepa vacuum? Do you just fog the ducts? Or you actually do a duct cleaning?

Air scrubbers only otherwise you have to change filters and clean that humidifier every time

Awesome! Who knew, thanks!

So don’t go into a pool then it’s bleach 😂

I wish y’all were in georgia

Vinegar is proved it doesn’t kill all the surface mold

I had the blackest nastiest mold sprouting everywhere. My landlord rented to me and promised to move it before I moved in. After moving in I kept getting sick so I had to clean it myself. I live in Quebec where landlords can do as they please. Anyways. Here’s my remedy TIMELINE: 3 days INGREDIENTS: magic eraser, peroxide, vinegar, and no name household cleaner with bleach. DISCLAIMER: the household cleaner with bleach is the actual name of the product. It’s made by maxi/no frills/Loblaws. It is similar to comet or Ajax cleaning product. The bleach was used after to remove the stains not to kill the mold. If you use the bleach alone you’ll spread the mold. So basically I used a spray bottle and mixed peroxide and vinegar. I sprayed the mold. Let it sit for an hour. Spray again. Let sit for 15 mins. Scrub with gloves and where a swim googles or eye protection because it got in my eye and fucked my eye up. For tiles at this stage it’s all done. For sheet rock or dry wall repeat for three days but with this additional step Mix one cup vinegar with a whole jar of the powdered bleach mentioned above. It should be slightly less thick than toothpaste. Wear gloves and spread over the stained areas. Leave over night. Next day spray with vinegar and peroxide. Scrub away. Run away with magic eraser. All the black will literally disappear. I mean completely. The mold was there two years with me. And five years with the other tenant. Completely gone. Spray weekly with vinegar if you’re paranoid. Spray your shower at least every two weeks to prevent new roots. Keep home clean. Use extractor fan in the bathroom if there’s one. All that good stuff that gets rid of extra moisture. House plants etc. Optional ingredients: tea tree oil

The company I hired for my 2nd mold remediation was supposed to use Benefect Decon 30, but I caught them using bleach. I snuck into my home after they had left for the day and found a spray pump with bleach in it. I was so mad and fired them that same day.

How do I sanitize a travel, trailer freshwater tank and the water lines before putting it into storage so that mold doesn’t grow in the faucet and the water lines in the freshwater tank thank you

What do you think of concombrium?

You look great!

Hi. I'm in Washington state I am needing to get a scent out of the carpets and looking for a company that uses a "sealed" HEPA filter commercial vacuum cleaner in my area. I looked on TH-cam to try to find this mold remediation is the only ones that seem to have them. Do you by chance have any ideas for me? Thank you.

Lemon or lemon extract removes mold and it never comes back.

Isn’t hydrogen peroxide bleach?

What's a good ratio of water to vinegar when cleaning the walls and also can vinegar be mixed with some kind of fragrant smelling product to reduce the vinegar smell in a room?

I own a restoration company and I can 💯 vouch for her. Great and factual advice!

Hi bleach 99% water there maybe 🤔 so you said your feeding bleach ok then next sentence use water and soap ok

Thanks for hurting my ears with zero information😂😂

Vinegar works the best lasts long time..

Some people might need to be aware that vinegar is not good to use on some surfaces

I used pool bleach mixed with baking soda and a sprayer and scrubbed my crawlspace with that solution. Ran a fan for the evening then the next day fully encapsulated it with a dehumidifier. Haven’t had an issue sense. Cheap easy and can get the supplies at Home Depot or lowes.

Clorox/hh bleach is materiall than "more than 99% water". I don't have a bottle handy but 6% sodium hypochlorite comes to mind. And what bureaucrat is coming to my house to stop me from cleaning more than 10 sf for mold? Same one who polices the Do Not Remove upholstery labels?

Terrible audio!

poor audio, couldn't hear anything. Please use a better mic.

SageRestoration, I have a couple questions about stopping mildew/mold growth ... Can soda crystals and white vinegar remove and get rid of mold and mildew in tile grout and on solid walls? If so how should it be applied and what is the procedure??

Tim-Bor is a product like Borax that is good to use on moldy porous surfaces. I think you spray it on with water. It’s a powder.

Hi! I am hearing impaired and I can't hear anything you're saying. I've got the volume turned up all the way.

BE AWARE!!! On the subject of bleach, FYI along with straight ammonia, bleach and DISHWASHING LIQUID is a BAD idea too. This might have been one of Heloise's Helpful Hints that I kept in mind when I used to clean my father's rental properties when I was a kid and then when I set up bachelor-style housekeeping in my first apartment. FYI It is recommended to pour 1 or 2 cups of bleach and a 1/2 or 3/4 of a box of baking soda down all your drains once in a while, maybe 3 or 4 times a year maybe more depending on whether they smell. As far as inadvertently creating any poisonous fumes by mixing bleach and dishwashing liquid in the kitchen sink, wait till the dishes are done and out of the sink with no lingering dishwashing detergent in the drain. Run lots of hot water into the drain well-before even OPENING any bleach in the kitchen! IMO bleach doesn't belong anywhere near the kitchen. I keep most household cleaning stuff under the kitchen sink with the notable exception of bleach. I don't want it in anywhere near other chemicals. Even though I use 'Sprayway' (aerosol) glass cleaner and not Windex with ammonia in a leaky spray bottle and I don't really clean with ammonia anyway. With so many bleach alternatives available I would use almost anything BUT bleach in the washer anyway. True bleach is really the alpha and omega of serious germ killers so I'll always keep a gallon around the house but more for cleaning, for laundry, not so much.... Cleaning those apartments I used to rent those big, fiberglass pro-type ''Rug Doctor'' carpet cleaning machines. I think they held 3-4 gallons of hot water(?) maybe more? Along with ''Rug Doctor''- brand detergent and ''Rug Doctor'' ''Anti-Foam'', I would always add lots and lots of bleach to the proceedings. Because this hot water, rug detergent and bleach mixture could be counted on to clean and kill most germs and to bring some of the worst-looking carpets back from the dead. For years I never considered whether or not mixing bleach with that commercial carpet detergent was potentially hazardous or not. Since nothing seemed to happen when and I haven't suffered any ill effects since then I guess me and the other maintenance guys too got away without any problems. Maybe the lesson is if you mix bleach with ammonia, dishwashing liquid or anything that might create some caustic even potentially dangerous fumes you'd probably feel it pretty quickly in your throat or even your lungs? Immediately after the initial sensation of singe-ing your nostril hairs...

Will this work on wallpapered walls in the bathroom?

There's only one thing that completely removes mold without ever it coming back (and without even cleaning after, because it literally makes it disappear, in about 10 minutes). Sodium hydrogen chloride. Just be really careful with it, it will remove the color of any fabric in seconds, it's like bleach on steroids.

Can you use these solutions on Antique Furniture?

So bleach has water, so does vinegar, borax and H2O2 and guess what? Water.

I was even more confused after watching this video. For mold on drywall, I would like to know if a hydrogen peroxide spray is best, before scrubbing. But I can't use a fan to dry it? And what ration hydrogen peroxide to water? Then you said that water feeds the root system. ???

Household hydrogen peroxide is almost entirely water.. And it’s unstable. As soon as air touches it eg when you take off the lid, even more becomes water. Take care using chemicals. Don’t breathe the vapour and always use gloves and eye protection. Never ingest any chemical substance and if in doubt seek medical advice. Just saying…

Thanks for providing good information without trying to sell me your "special" formula. Thumbs up!

how do you remove mold from clothes? we were in a home with black mold and also mold in ac vent system. so we are sure our clothing was contamineted. we moved out. thank you

You can use bleach to clean and get rid of the surface of mold. Not the Roots. To kill the roots just use a mold killer primer. It drys and acts as a moisture barrier.

Bleach is 99% water 🤔🤔 take a sip I’m trynna see some
