Just a reminder with this wet weather ☔️
Dealing with mould naturally is important for maintaining a healthy home environment without relying on harsh chemicals.
The wet weather, and our climate can bring to light mould spores. Kill them fast, naturall. Here are five top tips:
1. Increase Ventilation – Open windows and use exhaust fans to reduce moisture buildup in areas prone to mould, such as bathrooms and kitchens.
2. Use White Vinegar – Spray undiluted white vinegar on affected areas, let it sit for an hour, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Vinegar kills most mould species effectively.
3. Bicarbonate of Soda (Baking Soda) – Mix a teaspoon of baking soda with water in a spray bottle, apply it to mouldy areas, scrub, and then wipe clean. Baking soda helps absorb moisture and prevent future mould growth.
4. Clove Oil Solution – Add a few drops of clove oil to a spray bottle with water, spray the mould, and leave it for 24 hours before wiping it away. Clove oil is antifungal and can stop mould spores from spreading.
5. Reduce Humidity – Use a dehumidifier, place moisture absorbers (like charcoal or rock salt) in damp areas, and ensure leaks are fixed to keep humidity levels below 50%, making it harder for mould to grow.
For natural products that help to kill the spores and keep mould away, send me a message and I'll share what we use... and it works out only $2 a bottle. Affordable. Cleaner and greener!
Stay dry and smart, Gympie
