MOLD AND CHLORINE BLEACH
HOT TIP:
Do NOT use chlorine bleach to kill
mold or disinfect moldy areas. It is NOT the most effective or lasting
killer of mold and mold spores. On most porous, cellulose building
materials such as wood timbers, drywall, chipboard, plywood,
carpeting/padding, etc., bleach can change the color of the mold, and
can even slow down mold growth for about 3 weeks. Please note that a
recent study has found that
bleach can only
kill mold sitting on hard surfaces [such as ceramic floor and wall
tile, or a formica kitchen counter, or on the steel skin of an
appliance].

Chlorine Bleach Is Not Effective To Kill
Mold on Porous Surfaces Such as Wood, Drywall, Plywood, and Wall Paper
Q.
I live in a two year old, five story apartment building in Atlanta, GA. that
suffers from a faulty roof and has sustained quite a bit of water damage and
visible mold. The property maintenance team was unsuccessful in stopping the
leaks during the first year but now seem to have the water under control.
Unfortunately, over the course of time, mold developed within the walls of
the building. The maintenance team's solution has been diluted Clorox and a
fresh coat of paint. My particular unit leaked through the window frame and
went over a year until it was recently repaired. I was surprised by the
casual nature at
which the Clorox/paint solution was employed, I assumed the frame and
drywall were going to be replaced. I did a bit of research online regarding
mold and was shocked at what I found regarding the health risks. It was then
that I realized I have had two respiratory infections and one eye infection
since February. No warnings or statements of these risks have been issued
from the leasing office. I cannot financially afford to have the entire
building inspected nor do I want to involve an attorney at this time. Do you
have any suggestions? [August 8, 2003]
A.
Chlorine bleach is too weak to kill mold. Discover why by visiting:
Bleach
and Mold . When there
has been water and mold damage to a home, apartment house, or
other building, after the water problems have been stopped
permanently, all of the damaged building materials have to be
located and removed.

then test it to be mold-safe before new building materials
are installed. The leaking roof in your apartment building has
probably generated substantial mold growth in ceilings, walls,
and floors below. This hidden water damage and hidden mold
damage can cause severe and permanent health problems for
tenants. Because most landlords will not spend the often
substantial sums of money required for mold remediation, you
need to move as soon as possible to a mold safe place to live.
Even if the landlord were willing to do effective mold
remediation, you would still have to move because extensive
water and mold damage cannot be removed from areas in which
people are still living. Learn all of the procedures required
for safe and effective
mold remediation. |
