How to Get Rid of Mold in the Bathroom Easy

Venmo tip jar: @AndrewDIY
Getting rid of mold is vital for your health. This is the easiest way I've found to get rid of mold in the bathroom shower area, especially in hard to reach areas where mold can easily grow and cause significant health risks. This isn't a permanent fix, it is a maintenance issue that requires you to do it over time to prevent further mold and mildew growth. But it's worth it for aesthetics and your health!

Thank you!! I'm pregnant and found mold that took off like a race horse and need to clean before my baby girl arrives. I can't get on a ladder so this is genius!! Thank you!!

Worked like a charm. The scrub tool was 6 bucks for just the head. That's all I needed with a step stool. I had to buy kaboom with bleach for mold and mildew because tilex was not the kind shown.

Also, i removed everything, but forgot floor mats. I did get a few drops on them unfortunately

I wish I took before and after pictures because this was a lifesaver and works amazing 👍🏽

I wonder how efficient the bathroom fan is? Might need to be cleaned or replaced. Also, I wonder if the paint on the walls are the correct kind for bathrooms?

I’ve done this and then used Kilz mold and mildew primer to paint over it

I hate to burst your bubble about anything with bleach in it to kill mold, but I saw a documentary on Katrina and the aftermath where the mold had grown about 5 ft up inside the house. And the man that was documenting this program on Katrina ask how do you get rid of that mold do you use bleach. And the man answered and said this program on Katrina asked how do you get rid of that mold do you use bleach. And the man answered and set, no bleach actually feeds the mold and it will continually come back. I don't know exactly what they used but it was not bleach because bleach feeds the mold and keeps it alive. But I have had a problem with mold in my bathroom and I take my Swiffer Sweeper and I took a regular washcloth on the Swiffer Sweeper and then I apply alcohol and the alcohol takes all the mold out completely. Alcohol kills the mold. It's the best thing I had because I had a real problem with mold in the bathroom but that's what does it. Also leave your bathroom door open after taking a shower and allow the room to lose the moisture and dry the bathroom out. It's the moisture in the air that feeds the mold

Thank you for the video. I have a swiffer mop, so I was wondering can I make my own cloth using old towels that I’m going to throw away? Because I am too scared to go on the ladder and put on all that eyeglass and facemask gear.

Thank you! I knew what to do I just wanted a more efficient way to do it!
I have tall ceilings and a tiny bathroom. Our fan is really old and is loud and doesn't work that well which is the reason for the mold growth. We got a new fan to install.
I was not looking forward to wedging a ladder in my bathroom to clean with a scrub brush. I didn't even think about using anything else but a bristle brush.
I am tight on money so I don't want to make a trip to the city to get a tool(I'll have to check under my sink for the spray, otherwise I can go down the road to Dollar General.), so I will put a microfiber towel on my swiffer!

Bleach does not kill mold, it only bleaches the mold white. It will come back eventually until you address the issue.

[karenwilliams]

This might be a dumb question, but does thiis mean that this is just mold on the surface (outside of the wall) or it is coming from within the walls?

[fqussais]

It worked well in my bathroom but I will use your idea to clean more deeply...Thank you

[nikkib]

Awesome. Luckily my bath room is small with mold spots above the shower. I have a ladder stool but buying one of these wpuld5 be great because I could wash down all the walls in my house easily. Will look into it thanks.

[BBsmon]

Is it true bleach doesn’t kill bleach but only changes the color?

[AverageNeighbor]

Our house bathroom gets this, I'm not sure why. the vent fan works and has a large window, no other bathroom I've lived with ever got like this even the apartment with no natural light

[ohpba]

If the mold doesn’t come off quickly, how long should I wait to take off the solution?

[Crysss.O]

Does the Tilex work on painted bathroom walls? My mom has blue bathroom walls and wondered if the bleach would effect the paint

[lindacannon]

Do you then need to rinse the wall after the application of this cleaning mixture

[abbeymaier]

I have tilex mold and mildew spray and it claims to have bleach in it. Followed the directions and the mold spots haven't gone away.

[randomstuff]

does the rod come with it? if not what did you use?

[michaelmcdonald]

The mold/mildew in this old motel is ingrained & seems to be impervious to bleach & a commercial concentrate called Jomax. Any tips or is retiling the only solution?
