Bleach does not kill MOLD - each time you pour bleach on mold to kill that black ring at the grout line of your bath tub or clearn up that black mold around the grout line of your sink you are causing the mold to release their spores into the air - 250000 mold spores can fit on the head of a pin - mold can only be killed by removing the effected areas by a professional who is licensed and knows what he is doing - don't create a worse health situation for you and your family - be smart.
I heard that one type of mould is ok, but when there are two types present , that is when you see problems because the two react somehow and end up making you sick?
Mould is totoxic wether it is dead or alive, Bleach is effective and other sanitisers. The best way to stop mould is to have the source of moisture stopped, proper venting and air circulation in place.
Example: if you have a wet wall or ceiling, remove the paint or paper and you will be surprised to find mould, the first step is to remove paint or paper or even carpet and allow sub-walls/ceiling/floor to breath and dry out.
Unless you stop the source of moisture mould will always grow.
@Thebeerman301 It doesn't in fact kill anything. What it does is it takes the top of the plant off, then it adds water because the active cleaning agents in bleach go inert in aprox 30 sec of oxygen exposure. So you are not cleaning it you're just spreading it.
@Taocastin Ok but then why does it take a long while for the mold to return if it does at all? Maybe bleach doesnt kill the spores but I think it kills whats on the wall. But what I would really like to know is what besides sun light kills mold?
@Thebeerman301 hmmm,, not sure it really kills it all,, it does abate it for a while,, but what does work,, id Dry ice,, you need to find a company that has the dry ice pressure washer,, or maybe a local tool rental company might have one,, google it,, if you dont believe it,, btu dry ice is friken cold,, it kills it on contact,, and washes it away like you never even had it, even on plywood or particle board
indian fire looks like that, too... starts with a little pimple and grows into a large lesion... trouble it, it also looks like a brown recluse bite...
i have a mold problem in my shed. unfort i sleep there as this room is converted.with the walls painted mold still seeps through even after cleaning it off with dust wipes. i sleep in this room and only hope my body has adapted to the mold smell and inhalation. any advise on how to permanently rid it?
I to have a very bad case of mold in my house for 3 months iv been really sick and all my little kids two and my memory has gone to shit it dose make you think its killing you
I have successfully killed mold in my bathroom using sound. Using a Rife Frequency list I found on the internet I followed the guidlines for mold. What I did was find a tone generator software from the internet, theyre easy to find and even free, and plugged regular cpu speakers into my computer and brought it to the bathroom.
The Rife instructions are to sweep the frequency from 450 Hz to 1100Hz over the course of 7 Hours.
I did this because that morning the mold smell was so strong that it was almost overpowering and I felt that it was truly a health risk. It was a very prominent and ominous smell.
When I returned home that night there was NO SMELL AT ALL. I was amazed cuz I didnt really expect that SOUND would do that. To this day, over a month later there is still no mold smell.
It seems like the sonic vibration got faster and faster and the waveform got smaller and smaller, breaking the mold.
@cosseven , Can you please recommend a tone generator software? Also, how do you sweep the frequency from 450 HZ to 1100 HZ over 7 hours without monitoring it? I found a couple sound generators but the frequency stays the same. Thank you.
BLEACH DOES NOT KILL MOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't know where you got that information but it is very very wrong! Mold is like a tree, there is the top part that you can see, and the bottom part that you can't. All that bleach does is take the top off, while leaving the bottom "roots". The active cleaning component of bleach goes inert within 30 sec of air exposure! All that you are doing the is "watering" the mold! NEVER USE BLEACH TO CLEAN MOLD!
@Taocastin Bleach is not an effective mitigation method for mold. For the every day consumer there is a product on the market called Concrobrium Mold Control. You can find it at your homecenter in either a spray bottle or Gallon size container. This product is unique in that it destroys surface mold as it dries it crushes active spores embedded in the surface and encapsulates preventing further contamination. It is also non-toxic and non-corrosive.
@Taocastin to piggy back what 800 is saying, bleach causes the release of mycotoxins. These toxins are just as great as the mold problem, if not worse. Bleach is not a viable option when remediating mold.
@800newdollar I had a fungus/mold on one of my trees and I used bleach. I mixed it with some water and sprayed the tree trunk from the ground up about 10 feet, the mold never came back. I have killed it on walls too and painted and noticed it never came back. Why should I worry if I see it vanish and not come back? Come someone explain that? Breathing a bleach mist would be a very BAD idea. If it is in your body you need to seek medical help.
I know it is an effect of being exposed to mold. My first knowledge of this came over ten years ago when I had severe neck pain and went to the ER to get relief. There the attending doctor stated I had a mold infection.
i was upset, how could mold cause this issue? I did take the antibiotic and the next morning I was so much better that I called to tell the doctor and apologize.
Since then I have experienced several bouts with mold and would go to the clinic. Not one doctor ever agreed.
Popular opinion among mold abaters is that basidiospores produce five mycotoxins - amanitins, mono-methyl hydrazine (rocket fuel), muscarine, ibotenic acid and psilocybin. I am diagnosed with hypersensitivity pneumonitis. When I am exposed to a specific black mold in wet, slimey plywood on hot, spring days, my lungs produce fibers, a sudden drop in O2 levels and a high fever. In your case, one of these toxins is used by brain surgeons to induce lesions during surgery. Gyromitrin causes death.
Why is there not more information out there on the desvestating effects of black mold? Do you know if replacing my water heater can help too? Thanks for sharing your story, my friends still think I am crazy when I tell them TB at 27 is real, when living with black mold in your home!
my apartment has mold and i can even sense the mold in my nose, it's that smell feeling when you get punched in the face
or hitting the top of you head, and my clothing had mold on it this morning and the shower has mold in it i bet there is mold in my cieling as well, more updates later
One of my pet hairless rats had an open sore on his back in my old moldy apartment (of which I sued the landlord and won). The rat's sore NEVER healed, but as soon as I moved to a new apartment with no mold, the sore healed up completely within a week! I am assuming that the mold spores in the air in my old apartment would settle onto the rat's open sore and thus cause it to NOT heal. I also had stinging eyes in my old apartment, and I also got a couple fungal infections on my skin.
Let me clarify my previous post because someone sent me a private message which showed he misunderstood me. The lawsuit against my landlord was NOT about my pet rat. I had a leaking shower stall for 10 years, and there was mold caked onto the beams in the crawlspace as well as mold under the carpet on the padding. Landlord lived above me and I had several leaks from his toilet overflowing into my ceiling over a few years. Tenants need to stand up for their rights! Mold is a serious issue!
I currently am living in a basement apartment that was newly renovated by the guy who owns the place. on the baseboards only on the back wall of our place, we have greenish mold showing up, i have cleaned it 3 times now since i moved in a month and a half ago. all the landlord has done is shove a dehumidifier in the laundry room which is a sepereate room on the way down the stairs just before you enter our apartment. what the hell should i do man.
the landlord lives upstairs he is just ignoring it and not taking it seriously enough, I am going to refuse to pay my rent. he has already asked for this month 2 weeks ago. I dont' feel safe here and i feel like i have a cold now. every time i sit in our living room for a few minutes my eyes get all scratchy and my throat gets scratchy and i sneeze like crazy.... NO one is taking me serious man. what can i do. i feel like walking upstairs and just lettin him have it.
i'm almost positive it's all through the back wall of the house in the foundation and it's currently growing and probably will be way worse after winter during next spring. I just am moving ASAP but i do not want the next ppl that move in here to get sick either, what the heck do i do man. who do i report this guy to, the office of the rentalsman dont' seem to care, they are the tenant mediators for the government here. i'm in NB , Canada. who can i call?
The music is the same as the so call prophecies of Raymund Aguilera that are on youtube, in fact at first I though it might be a joke. I put up a video response to Raymund Aguilera videos. Now if this is from Mold I don't know but I sure do hope the best for anyone with that problem.
Dear friend i think I have been exposed to black mold and now have some bad health problems , can you please tell me how to get this diagnosed or what type of medicine to use to get better, Thank you
people who dont believe this are STUPID. why do they think that breathing spores of mould and fungus wont harm you? breathing bacteria harms your health, its only the same.
umm i basically sleep in the laundry room and theres carpet and my washer leaked and i think theres mold here because i feel real bad when i sleep in there but i cant see any mold around my washer
that can definitely be a link. I know no one believes that black toxic mold really exists. But it does. And the health effects my family and I have experienced are absolutely horrific. This stuff is meant to KILL and is definitely carcinogenic. And no bleach does not kill mold and no this is not to scare you either. Get your air tested by a professional and that will help you get started on your way....any other questions, send me a message. I hope your nanna is alright.
We lost use of the house that we bought from St.Joe Co.after onlty living on it for 8 months because the black molds started appearing all over the windows and walls.And we were all sick.
There's another story on here about a woman who died in Washington STate from all the mold in her house. Of course it's bad for a person.
And to the person who said "you're scarring the public", in the first place, it's "scaring" like making afraid, not "scarring" like making a scar. Illiterate people trying to sound literate.
Anyway, sometimes the truth is scary but I'd rather know the truth and get checked than not know and die. You can choose then. Too many PC people these days. Sheesh
You are very correct about mold and thier toxins. I cant say what your sores are but it resembles a brown recluse spider bite. Intrestingly enough it is the only insect bite toxin small enough to penatrate thr brain barrier causein damage in the brain area resulting in the infection not going away and continuing to circulate through your system as do mold toxins. Just a thought
All mold is bad for you. "Black" mold gets a bad rep because it's easy to talk about on T.V. But all type colors and varieties are bad in your living space, work space, or play area.
I have been having delusions, hallucinations, hot flashes, and seizures, which I am SURE are ALL effects of me being exposed to black mold. Black Mold is DANGEROUS and not enough people know about it. I'll probably have "problems" due to permanent effects. .
i am also a victim with organic dust toxic syndrome and was barely able to do anything at all + my central nervous system fucked up and i lost half of my strength, all because of mold.
