Bathroom
Mold and Mildew
-
Use a strong cleaner
such as Fuller Brush's Bath Clean,
Spray Clean, or
Soft Scour to remove all lime, soap
and scum from bathtub, showers and tile. For regular cleaning, try the
Tile and Grout Spray.
-
For easy reach, try the
Bathtub Swab, or the
Bathroom Cleaning Tool, which also
reaches behind the toilet. Or to avoid bending and stretching
altogether, use the Tub & Shower E-Z
Scrub.
-
If stains from mildew
remain, especially between the tiles into the grout, no normal bathroom
cleaner will bleach this stain and completely kill the fungi. Rinse
surfaces well and use a face mask. Use bleach mixed with water in a spray
bottle, and cover all stained areas with this solution. Close bathroom
door and LEAVE. An open window or extractor helps. When fumes
have mostly disappeared and walls are nearly dry, wipe down with a damp,
disposable rag. If any stains remain, repeat.
-
Since chlorine
contaminates ground water, can combine with other chemicals with damaging
results, and has health issues, it's better to prevent regrowth as long as
possible with other products. This can be done with Fuller Brush
aerosol Industrial Germicidal Cleaner
or Spray 'n San™
Foaming Disinfectant Cleaner
which uses a trigger sprayer. Both products also kill bacteria and
viruses as well as cleaning and deodorizing. Use every day or two for
best results; wipe down with a towel or shammy.
-
Don't forget the
floor! If you have a mold or mildew problem in the bath, spores have
surely drifted onto the floor. Clean the floor by the same method.
