I have mold in my bathroom and i know that mixing bleach and vinegar makes a toxic gas but is it alright to use vinegar on the surface (sprayed on) then an hour later scrub down the bathroom with some bleach? Or should i just use one and which is better to use?

CUTE LITTLE HONEY BEAR asked:


My house has black mold downstairs from inside the walls. A specialist came out to look at the downstairs. He claims that it’s toxic and he can condemn the house. He says everything must be trashed. Is the true or what? I don’t believe him. What should I do?

My parents have some bowls made of of fabric that was placed over some mold I assume, then sprayed or maybe dipped in some type of sealant. It is clear, very hard, dishwasher safe, and obviously non-toxic since they are used for food. I would love a brand name or if you just know a type that fits these qualifications. 10 points best answer, thanks!

What is the best treatment for mold on a hardwood floor?

greece asked:


Just moved into a house and we are finishing the hardwood floors. The house was carpeted and when we ripped out the carpets we found what looks to be mold stains on sections of the hardwood floor. We have sanded the floors with an orbital sander but the stains didn’t come out. I have heard that using a bleach treatment might work. Are there any products out there that will get rid of stains on hardwood floors. Any other suggestions? Thanks.
