Caution! Vinegar and Bleach Can Kill… MOLD!

Vinegar and bleach, commonly used household cleaners, have a dangerous side too! They can kill! Yes, both are excellent killers of pests, pathogens and mold.

However, you can use them for more than just to get rid of mold and germs. Here are a few reasons why they are indispensable in your home:

Use Vinegar and Bleach to Kill More Than Mold

  • Remove Weed and Garden Pests –If you want to tackle weed and worms in your garden, go for that bottle of vinegar but not the bleach. Bleach will kill not only the worms but your plants too, and render the soil useless for a long time. Besides, many areas regulate the use of bleach outside the house.
  • Remove Household Germs – Both these products are effective for cleaning germs inside the house. Vinegar is a natural product and is safe to use in the kitchen. You can use it to clean the kitchen sink, countertop, and chopping board. Bleach is a strong and caustic product. Use it to remove germs and grease from bathroom tiles and tubs. It can be diluted with water and used to clean fixtures too.
  • Remove Mold – Mold is a year-round issue in Florida homes because of the humidity. It needs to be removed completely to keep your home safe. Both vinegar and bleach have a role in removing mold. Bleach can kill surface mold and remove the stain left behind by mold infestation. Vinegar can penetrate into the mold and kill the spores if the infestation is not extensive.

If you are not able to get your home clean with vinegar or bleach, it means that you have a serious issue on hand. Mold grows on damp surfaces and you may have moist drywall or a leaking pipe. It is important to get a professional to inspect your home to identify the source of the mold and remove it thoroughly, as well as repair cracked dry walls.
