How can you kill mold (it is not toxic black mold)? I have heard that bleach will not kill it?
Jenn B asked:
Hello,
Does anyone know how can you kill mold (it is not toxic black mold) in your basement/attic? I have heard that bleach will not kill it, rather just die it a lighter color so that you cannot see it. Any suggestions/recommendations would be greatly appreciated! I know there’s mold remediation places out there, but we wanted to try to do it ourselves, first. The mold in the basement is not up to the first floor or the rafters, just on the cement wall.

You need to get a fungicide.

If you wash the wall with TSP, sold at home centers then spray with bleach to slow return is fairly good approach.

Bleach should work. But I would call a place that works with mold and double check

I would suggest getting a dehumidifier in the basement to reduce the humidity that mold needs to grow.
Contact a home improvement store, that have products that will remove the mold and help prevent the return.
Good luck

Use fungiside.
