Mold in the house is a very unpleasant situation. And the most mold is formed in the joints of your dwelling. If you want to keep your joints mold free, rub this into them. Not even a trace of the mold will remain.
Mold in the house is an unpleasant situation, and not always easy to solve. But how does mold develop in your home? Unfortunately, this happens more often than you think, as it’s easy for mold to get into your home. Mainly due to humidity and air condensation. It’s enough if you don’t ventilate enough. Once moisture accumulates in your apartment, it can become a real nuisance.
Your wooden furniture will start to rot, the plaster will peel off and mold will start to form on the walls, in the joints, and generally everywhere, which is not only unsightly, but above all very dangerous, as you inhale fungal fumes, which can lead to respiratory problems.

Mold in the joints
Mold needs moisture to grow. So the ideal refuge for her is the bathroom. Mold can take up residence there, for example, in the joints, as the joints between the tiles are filled with grout, which, however, wears out after some time. This means that it turns gray, dirt accumulates in it and thus represents an absolute paradise on earth for fungi. However, you have several options to get rid of joint fungus quickly and effectively.
The first option is to remove the mold using chemicals. And of all the chemicals, bleach is the most recommended against fungi. So mix one part bleach with three parts water in a bucket. For your safety, wear rubber gloves.
Wait for a while until the solution is sufficiently mixed, and then take a brush, a brush that you use for cleaning (not teeth), or a sponge and scrub everything thoroughly using bleach water. Scrub until you are sure that the mold and stains are gone. Then wipe everything with plain warm water.
It works even without chemistry
If you don’t want to play the little chemist’s laboratory, and you prefer a natural way of eliminating mold, then our good old friend, or baking soda, will help you. The advantage of baking soda is that it is cheap, effective, and above all, it does not burden you and your apartment with unwanted fumes from chemicals.
Pour half a liter of water into the bucket and add five tablespoons of baking soda. Then all you have to do is take a sponge or a brush and thoroughly scrub the tiles and joints. And you’re done. Mechanical mold removal is not exactly a walk in the park, and you will have to sacrifice a significant amount of your free time, but it is worth it for a life without mold in your joints.
