Bathrooms are full of moisture, and the environment is ideal for the growth of mold and mildew. You often see this in your shower and grout areas, but it can creep up on walls and other areas with time.
While proper ventilation can reduce the growth of mold, you may still find mold in the bathroom. These amazing mold removal tips make it easy to quickly remove mold before it takes over.
1. Let bleach do the hard work
Bleach is a tried and true mold and mildew remover that’s inexpensive and effective. But it’s a strong chemical, so you should use caution and wear gloves. To remove stubborn mold from the caulking around your tub, soak a cotton beauty coil in bleach and apply to the caulked area. Allow it to work overnight, then remove it in the morning and rinse with water.
2. Clean a jetted tub
Jetted tubs are great for relaxing, but the jets provide a perfect hiding place for mold and mildew. Regular cleaning helps remove the oils, soaps and dirt from your whirlpool jets. The safest method of cleaning and disinfecting your jets is to use a combination of baking soda and vinegar.
Simply use baking soda to give your tub a good scrubbing. A toothbrush allows you to get around the jets with ease. Don’t rinse the baking soda. Just fill the tub with hot water to cover the jets. Add 3 cups of vinegar, then run the jets for several minutes. Drain and repeat with fresh, cold water to rinse.
