How to Remove Mould in the End of Tenancy

Mould and mildew are very serious domestic problems. They usually appear in cities with high humidity, like London. Mould is a very stubborn issue, and can cause very serious troubles. It is one of the main irritants to allergy and asthma sufferers. That is why it must be removed as soon as spotted.

Here are a few cleaning techniques for mould removal from end of tenancy cleaning London experts:

• Spray the mould-affected areas with bleach. This is the most effective detergent against the evil irritant, but it is dangerous for your health, too. It is very important to wear a mask on your mouth and gloves on your hands when you're using it, so not to touch it with bare hands, and not to breath in the toxic fumes that it emits.
• Prepare your own mould removing solution from one cup hot white vinegar, one tablespoon salt, and ten drops sandalwood, lavender or eucalyptus essential oil. Pour the mixture in a squirt bottle to apply it more easily, and treat the mouldy areas. This solution works just like bleach does – you only have to apply it and the spores of the irritant will disappear in a few minutes. It is not dangerous like the chlorine-based bleach, though.

I saw an article on the Internet in which the author claims, that a mixture of one cup hot water and quarter cup baking soda also removes mould, but any of the tenancy cleaners in London agrees with him. First of all, water and moisture help mould grow. And secondly, to clean with this mixture you have to rub the mouldy area, which is also unacceptable. Rubbing the spores will help them spread around the room, and start growing somewhere else. I personally recommend that you avoid this method, and stick to the previous two.
