Transcript excerpt

Sergio, what do you think is best for killing mold in your shower? Using vinegar or bleach? What do you think? Bleach, obviously. Well, that's actually one of the biggest mistakes people make when cleaning. How? Bleach isn't always the best option to kill mold. It only lightens the stain, but when it comes to ground or cut, it doesn't always kill it from the good. That's why people that clean mold using only bleach see it coming back just after a few weeks. So what should I do instead? Come here. I'll show you. Add two cups of warm water, one tablespoon of dish soap, one quarter of a cup of hydrogen peroxide, and two tablespoons of baking soda into a spray bottle. The hydrogen peroxide helps treat the mold stains. The dish soap cuts through soap scum and body oils, and the baking soda loosens tough grime. And then what? Spray it on your moldy grout, hot, tile, and shower corners, and let it sit ten to fifteen minutes. Then scrub with a medium bristle brush. Brush reaches deeper into grout lines, corners, and small rank, making sure the root of the mold gets removed. Unlike bleach, this cuts through soap scum, body oils, and tough bad and grime. Wow. I didn't know that. Don't worry.
