Black Mold

How can you kill mold (it is not toxic black mold)? I have heard that bleach will not kill it?

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.

Thanks!

a month or so ago a water line in my kitchen busted and flooded the room…….we managed to get everything dry except for the drywall which will not dry at all……….it has begun to grow black mold from about knee high all the way down to the floor…….i heard that bleach was the only thing that could kill it so i’ve been bleaching it off but it always comes back within 3 days…why?? what can i do about it??

How do you kill black mold. I heard bleach doesn’t do it?

We had a flood in our basement and all the carpeting we had got wet. We didn’t pull it up right away and now (after we did ) the cement floor is filled with black mold and who knows what else. What should we use to clean it that will kill the black mold and any other kinds of molds or mildew that might be lurking there.

Best way to stop mold/mildew from coming back?

We built our house 3 years ago. 1st year we noticed the shower door leaked. So I got some calking, mold/mildrew resistant, and sealed it up. Months later I notice nasty black stuff on the calking. Tried to clean, but it was under that calking. So I removed all of the calking, washed with bleach and let it dry for a week. Re-calked. Months later the mold/mildew is back. GRRRR Removed calking, applied a product designed to remove mold/mildew. Re-calked. 3 months later. It’s back. :( Please help!
