Mold in a kitchen or bathroom are common instances in many homes and businesses. How to avoid this is sometimes tricky because of the moist environment.
Bleach is a powerful oxidizer and can sometimes sanitize non-porous surfaces of certain microbials. When you encounter a semi-porous wall covered in mold straight bleach is NOT the product to use. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recognizes that this is not the correct solution.
Most people have come to believe that jug bleach that you purchase in the store which contains sodium hypochlorite is effective in removing discoloration but may leave microflora that will enable the mold to return to the same spot when conditions are right.
So what do we do? First a thorough cleaning of the surface is necessary. There are some products that contain bleach but also contain other antimicrobial agents that will combat the mold. When you use the right kind of antimicrobial the mold will be eliminated and the remaining bio-slime eliminated too.
Education is the key to the proper treatment of mold. Contact your local supply sales professional to determine the correct products for your application.
