The secret place you should be putting a mini dehumidifier to reduce damp & mould - it gets rid of nasty smells too
A WOMAN has revealed the £4.20 hack she used to banish dangerous mould from her bathroom.
With temperatures plummeting this weekend, you may have noticed that the cold weather has caused condensation to start to appear on your windows.
The woman's window ledge was covered in mouldThe mould has now vanishedMould Magic can be purchased from TikTok shop
Condensation occurs when warm, moist air comes into contact with a cold surface, causing the water vapour in the air to condense into liquid water.
This can then lead to mould growth on walls and ceilings, which can cause a wide variety of health problems, including asthma and rashes.
It can also cause damage to your home and furniture, so it's best to find the root cause of the issue, and fix it.
Known only as @ladylegit online, one TikToker revealed that her window ledges were riddled with black mould.
Taking matters into her own hands, she decided to purchase some Mould Magic gel, which you can pick up fromTikTokshop for £4.20.
After applying the gel to the affected area, the woman waiting for two hours, and then wiped it off.
“I mean the results speak for themselves,” she said, revealing that the mould had completely vanished.
The TikToker said that she had tried three different types of bleach on the mould, but said that it would always come back.
“This mould magic is the only thing that's permanently got rid of the mould,” she said.
In the caption of her video, the woman revealed that she had used the gel on her mould four months ago, and it hasn't yet come back.
Our home is so mouldy mushrooms and flies infest walls - it's making us sick
The video has now gone viral, racking up a whopping five million views.
TikTokers raced to the comments section to share their thoughts, with many praising the method.
One person said: “Just bought this, can't wait to see the results.”
A second person said: “This really does work. I used this about three years ago and it honestly hasn’t returned.”
An expert's guide to removing mould and repainting walls
Not only does mould look ugly, but if it’s not treated properly it can impact your health.
Ronseal shared its guide to removing, fixing and preventing mould infestations.
You should only remove mould if it’s caused by condensation and covers an area smaller than one metre squared. If the mould is caused by sewage or contaminated water, call in a professional.
Before you start, wear goggles, long rubber gloves and a mask that covers your nose and mouth to protect you from the mould spores. Open the windows for added ventilation but keep the doors shut to avoid spores spreading.
How to remove mould from walls:
Fill a bucket with water and mild detergent like washing up liquid. Or use a dedicated mould remover to make quick work of it.
Dip a cloth in water and wipe the mould off the wall. Don’t brush it as this can release mould spores.
Once you’ve removed the mould, use a dry rag to remove the rest of the moisture.
Throw away the cloth and vacuum the room to make sure you’ve removed all of the spores.
How to paint over mould:
Never ever paint over mould without killing it first. It won’t tackle the source of the problem and will make it look worse.
Once you’ve treated the affected area, use a specialist anti-mould paint to finish the job.
Damp stains can be painted over with a suitable paint like Ronseal's 6 Year Anti Mould Paint, so long as the damp has dried and the source has been treated. Some damp sealants can be applied directly onto a wet surface, so check the instructions before you begin.
A third person said: “This gel is really good.”
Black mould is a fungus that grows in warm, wet conditions such as in the bathroom.
Mould can build up for a number of reasons, such as leaking pipes, poor insulation or if condensation is not wiped away after you've had a shower.
It's important to get rid of mould as it can cause many health problems.
According to the NHS, black mould can lead to asthma attacks, allergic reactions and infections.
When removing black mould, it is important to protect yourself by using rubber gloves and a mask that covers you nose and mouth.
