Using Bleach to wipe off mould, what proportion?

vicwatson

Some websites say 1:10 others 50:50

Can anyone tell me what's correct - how many parts bleach to water for wiping a mould patch off a ceiling ?

Bleach is uselss, and does'nt kill the mould spores etc.

you need a fungusicidal solution.

yep, i got stuff in a spray in pat mcDonnell paints, its about €10 or €12 a trigger bottle......I'll check the name of it later and maybe post a pic of it.
Its good strong gear, need to wear a mask or bandana over the nose when applying it, and then leave the room for a while....it stinks but its good and prevents regrowth.

You can also get stuff to add to your new paint, that inhibits regrowth of mould/fungus......Pat McDonnells have it too.

vinegar can be used also to kill mould

Tea tree oil mixed with water should work, and it safer than chemicals
