Does Chlorine Bleach Kill Mold and Mildew

Mold spores are everywhere; they are part of our environment, microscopic and they play a very important part in our eco system. Mold, mildew and bacteria all contribute to the digestion process of breaking down leaves, dead trees and other plants back into soil. It is Mother Earths’ way of cleaning our planet and our environment of natural garbage.

The problem starts when the spores come into our home and lay about until they come into contact with a food source. Water and nutrients are what they need to grow. Water, moisture and humidity will all act as the water source. Building materials such as wood, sheet rock and paper products will all act as a nutrient source. Mold can grow out of control in a very short period of time destroying your home and endangering the health of you and your family. People with weak immune systems should be especially careful when exposed to toxic mold. Flu like symptoms is common in people that have been subjected to spores, mold growth and mildew exposure.

In addition, the E.P.A. and several other Health Departments have advised that bleach is ineffective at cleaning, disinfecting or killing mold spores and mold.
