The bathroom is the area of the home most susceptible to the formation and accumulation of mold . Black mold in the bathroom in particular seems to be even more difficult to remove and sticks to walls, tiles, silicone and many other surfaces.
Mold is nothing more than a group of fungi (or microscopic organisms) that tend to develop and multiply in humid and warm environments such as the bathroom. Poor ventilation in the bathroom and inadequate cleaning can promote the formation of mold .
In this article we suggest how to make a completely natural “anti-fungal” cleaner to avoid having to resort to bleach, ammonia or other industrial products full of chemicals.
Ingredients:
- 250 ml white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 250 ml hot water
- 10 drops of lemon essential oil
Pour vinegar and water into a spray diffuser bottle. After a few seconds, add the lemon juice and shake well. Finally, gradually add the baking soda to curb the foaming reaction.
Once you have mixed the ingredients in the bottle well, close it and spray it directly onto the mold-affected surfaces. Leave on for 15 minutes.
To increase effectiveness, sprinkle some baking soda on surfaces.
After 15 minutes, scrub with a toothbrush and rinse with warm water. The mold should disappear completely , if not, you can repeat the application of the DIY anti-fungal cleaner .
