During Jamaica's recovery post-Hurricane Beryl, the increased humidity can exacerbate mold growth on wooden floors. Allowing mold to persist can damage the wood and pose health risks to your family. Therefore, efficient mold removal is crucial to preserve your floors and health. Here are 10 effective methods to remove mold from wooden floors:
Soap and Water: Mix mild dish soap with warm water. Dip a soft brush into the solution and lightly scrub areas with light mold. Use a damp cloth to wipe and dry immediately.
White Vinegar: Pour white vinegar into a spray bottle and apply it to moldy areas. Let it sit for about 1 hour, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Baking Soda: Create a paste of baking soda and water, apply it to moldy spots, scrub gently, and wipe with a damp cloth.
Hydrogen Peroxide: Spray 3% hydrogen peroxide on mold, let it sit for 10 minutes, scrub, and wipe with a damp cloth.
Tea Tree Oil: Mix 1 teaspoon tea tree oil with 1 cup water in a spray bottle. Spray on mold, let sit for 1 hour, then wipe with a damp cloth.
Isopropyl Alcohol: Mix equal parts alcohol and water in a spray bottle, spray on mold, let sit briefly, scrub, and wipe with a damp cloth.
Lemon Juice: Apply lemon juice directly to mold, let sit, scrub lightly, and wipe with a damp cloth.
Borax Solution: Mix 1 cup borax with 1 gallon water, apply to mold, scrub lightly, and wipe with a damp cloth.
Grapefruit Seed Extract: Mix 10 drops with 1 cup water in a spray bottle, spray on mold, let sit, and wipe with a damp cloth.
Commercial Mold Remover: Follow manufacturer instructions for application and cleaning.
