SSPDaily has prepared life hacks for getting rid of mold in the bathroom. Learn how to use natural products and ensure proper ventilation.
Using vinegar
Prepare a solution by mixing equal parts of vinegar and water in a spray bottle. Apply the solution to the moldy areas in the bathroom. Leave the vinegar solution on for about an hour, and then use a brush or sponge to remove the mold. Finally, rinse the bathtub thoroughly to remove any remaining vinegar and mold.
Hydrogen peroxide
Create a mixture by mixing equal parts hydrogen peroxide and water in a spray bottle. Apply the solution to the affected areas. Leave it on for at least 10 minutes and then use a brush or sponge to remove the mold. For thorough removal, rinse the bathtub to remove any remaining mold.
Ensure proper ventilation
As soon as you stop taking a shower or bath, open windows or turn on an exhaust fan to help remove excess moisture. If these options are not available, installing a dehumidifier specifically for the bathroom can be very effective in reducing humidity levels. In addition, respond promptly to plumbing problems or leaks, as they are key factors in preventing water damage and subsequent mold growth.
