Can Bleach Be Used To Clean Up Mold?

Yes, bleach can be used to remove mold on surfaces where you can see it. Keep in mind, of course, that a tiny spot of any surface should first be tested to make sure it can withstand the power of bleach. Also remember that bleach should be diluted before use on any surface. Bleach cannot be used to clean mold off drapery, rugs or upholstery. Using bleach to clean away mold is possible, but only with care.

It’s the mold in the air, which you can’t see or smell, that can only be found by inspecting and testing for it. Mold Testing NJ-NY is a certified professional Mold Inspection and Testing Service, working in Bergen County NJ and nearby locations, that will perform a series of tests. If dangerous levels of mold are found we will recommend remediation. We do not remove mold, we only test for it. You need to hire a qualified mold removal service for remediation.

Are There Other DIY Ways of Removing Mold?

Yes, Vinegar can also be used to remove some mold from non-porous surfaces. Again, test a small spot first. Using Bleach or Vinegar cannot clean up the mold that is floating in the air. This floating air-borne mold is what usually causes allergy and illness.
