Our basement sump pump tank is almost dry and filled with slimy black mold, how, & what do I use to clean it?
needhelp asked:
It normally has about 6- 8 inches of water in it, but it’s just moist at the bottom now and about an inch of black slim covered highly gasy smelling mold has covered the bottom of the tank…any healthy sure proof suggestions on how to get rid of it?

1-clean the filter (spray with a mild household cleaner and run hot water through it)
2- flush it out with your water hose, to make sure its still working
3- if it is still working, put vinegar and salt in it (1 cup vinegar, 1 tablespoon table salt) leave for 10 minutes, then flush it again
4- replace the filter with a new one
do not breath in the mold, cover your mouth and nose! rubber gloves wouldn’t hurt either!

Wear a mask, goggles and gloves when doing any mold removal, if the mold is toxic it can cause very serious health issues.
