4 Ways to Get Rid of Mold Without Hiring a Professional
If you\u2019ve noticed a few spots of mold in your home, you\u2019re certainly not alone. When dealing with a small area, you can usually get rid of the mold on your own. However, if you think the mold problem in your home is significant, you should definitely hire a professional. But for minor mold problems, you can try these simple solutions.

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Hydrogen Peroxide<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    You already know that hydrogen peroxide is a disinfectant and antiseptic for cuts and scrapes. But did you know that it also kills mold? Simply spray a little on the affected area, let it sit for about 10 minutes, then scrub and wipe clean.
    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Baking Soda<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Baking soda not only helps get rid of mold, but it also dries out and deodorizes the area. Dissolve a small amount of baking soda in water, then spray the solution on the area before scrubbing and rinsing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. Dish Soap<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        If you are treating a non-porous surface or area, a combination of warm water and liquid dish soap will remove mold.
        <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        1. Distilled Vinegar<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Is there anything distilled vinegar can\u2019t do?! Simply spray a little vinegar on the affected area, then let it sit for about an hour. When the time is up, wipe it down and rinse thoroughly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Remember, when getting rid of mold yourself, you should always wear rubber gloves and a face mask. You want to avoid getting mold spores on your skin, and you especially want to avoid breathing in the spores, as this can cause many mold-related illnesses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
