🚫 Myth: Bleach kills mold.
✅ Fact: Bleach may remove the color of mold, but it does not effectively eliminate mold growth on porous materials like drywall, wood, or ceiling tiles.
Many people see mold disappear after spraying bleach and assume the problem is solved. In reality, bleach often only affects the surface while mold roots can remain embedded deep within the material, allowing it to return and continue spreading.
Improper mold treatment can lead to ongoing property damage, unpleasant odors, and potential health concerns. The key is identifying and correcting the moisture source, properly removing affected materials when necessary, and thoroughly cleaning the impacted area.
If you suspect mold in your home or business, don't just cover it up—address the source and make sure it's remediated correctly.
