There are many things that nobody ever wants to find inside their house and mold is at the top of the list. Not only is it unsightly and nasty, many types of it are toxic and extremely harmful for human health. It can also end up causing extensive damages to a home which are hard and costly to fix. That’s why it’s vitally important to keep your home mold-free.
If you ever spot any sign of mold growing, you need to deal with it immediately to remove and prevent it from spreading. The areas where it’s most likely to show up is in kitchens, bathrooms, and basements because mold thrives in damp, moist, wet environments. Even if you can’t see it, there is probably mold growing between tiles or in the cracks and crevices of your bathroom. That’s because the nasty fungus can even be found in houses that appear to be clean and mold-free on the surface.
There are many types of commercially available products that promise to eradicate mold, but they are often filled with harsh chemicals that are just as toxic as some molds are. Rather than purchasing those harmful and expensive products, try this all-natural tea tree oil based treatment instead.
Tea tree oil is very effective at killing all types of mold spores, including the dreaded and potentially lethal black mold, because it has natural fungicidal properties. Best of all, it’s non-toxic and safe for human health. People have been using it for thousands of years to treat skin problems like rashes and burns. It’s also been found to be useful in the treatment of several other health issues including bronchitis, asthma, sore throats, runny noses, and other respiratory based matters.
To make the tea tree oil mold fighting spray you will need the following three items:
2 teaspoons of tea tree oil
2 cups of water
One spray bottle
Directions:
1. Combine the water and tea tree oil in the spray bottle and mix it together well.
2. Give it a good shake and then spray it on any area where there is mold.
3. Allow the solution to sit and dry before wiping it off with a soft cloth or old towel.
* If the mold is really heavy, in a narrow spot, or a tight area, use an old toothbrush or a similar type of scrubbing brush to really work it out and get it off.
4. Spray a second coat to ensure any remaining mold is killed and to stop it from growing back.
There you have it, it’s really that easy! Not only does the tea tree oil kill and eradicate nasty mold safely, it also prevents it from growing back in the future when you regularly treat surfaces with it. In the end, if you use this oil spray around your house, you’ll never have to see mold again, and that’s awesome!
