Black Mold - How we get rid of mold in under 3 min! 

There are over 100,000 different species of mold. Apparently, white vinegar has the ability to kill 82% of those species. If you have mold that falls into the remaining 8% species that vinegar can't eliminate, then....

Mold

@@plandl1 The correct English spelling is 'mould.'

That’s the British way of spelling

Don’t listen to this dude, he’s full of it

If you check the 0:52 mark he actually talks about why he doesn't believe vinegar works for this.

​@carrotman That because he works for the company that makes the expensive specialist spray

Go to Home Depot and ask for an antimicrobial

I did, they sold me vinegar.

😂 I don't know if you're serious but this reply is awesome! Lol ​@@sharksport01

How would he get all your money from paying him for exclusive access to it? Middle men bloodsuckers.

use RMR 86 (stain remover) and RMR 141 (microbial)

Sodium Hypochlorite Or BLEACH ya goonba

@@Mr.SuperDuper-idk never bleach !! why the insult ?

@@KevinKenna-wv6qx ok explain then.

But some random guy on youtube said to just spray it and that is cheaper, so Imma do that, mkay? Also, why am I having trouble breathing now.

@@MAGAMAN It depends on what it is. IICRC S500 and S520 provide advice on what materials can be sprayed or cleaned. Porous items generally have to be removed. Non-porous and semi-porous materials can be saved if they're not soft and rotted out. You should seek a professional's advice on your specific situation.

Hey can I get fired if I failed clearance

@@fgfcshorttimes What is your clearance level and who will perform the clearance? Does it involve visual clearance or air sampling clearance or both?

@@audiophileman7047 safeguard is doing the testing but that’s the problem they don’t let me know where I failed or why they won’t tell me if it was air sample swab or tape lift or visual they just throw me in there it’s a new company and I think they don’t know what they are doing and I feel like they are setting me up to fail

Working while the customer is still present in the area is: TIYTE!

Your grammar sucks

I already knew what demographic lived there, which is based on the constant fire alarm that kept beeping.

AWESOME! Good luck my friend!

Thanks John !!

Fix the leak!! It’s much cheaper than destroying your cabinets!

Congrats on your first house!

Did you fix it? I am in the same process with small mold. I think I can DIY.

I think it was my grandma told me to always keep a large mixing bowl or small bucket (like one ice cream comes in ) under the bend of the kitchen sink pipe incase a leak starts. I've always done that and it's saved me from lots of damage. If I ever come across a commercial size roasting pan I'm putting that under incase the garbage disposal ever drips again.

This is not the answer I was looking for.

so true

Can you share more info? Need assistance with some mold under a sink. What would you suggest? Not all mold removal companies are legit… and i know it’s better to replace materials than try to clean it.

@@blueskies773 First thing you’ve gotta do is get the leak stopped. Most mold is caused because of a leak. Our latest remediation was caused because the drain in the wall was broken. Every time the dishwasher drained or the sink was running water was leaking into the wall. It could’ve been like that for years. We simply don’t know. There’s a lot of factors. Any materials that are porous get cut out. Insulation Sheetrock particle board etc. Usually we’re taking things down to the studs. If there’s mold on 1 side of the Sheetrock the chances of mold being on the back side is very high. You could clean it and it would come right back. Like the drain in the wall the problem hasn’t been dealt with. Few things to consider. If you start to disturb the mold is gonna spread if it hasn’t spread already. Before we even touch it we put up containment and create a negative air pressure. Full face respirator should be used as well as a full body n95 suit. Notice not to breath through. Breathing through an N95 is pointless when it comes to mold or certain diseases that can pass right through it. I’m not saying that guys don’t do it without safety precautions. There’s probably guys that jump down into sewers to clean them without PPE. But it’s stupid and they’re taking there lives in there hands. Honestly the best thing to do is call professionals. If they tell you with a straight face that bleach works don’t hire them. Also try to call a number directly. Ads on Google can charge the business a lot of money. Which is fine as long as you hire them. But for us we’ve lost jobs that cost us 300 just for the call. So regardless of what happens we tend to want are money back to at least break even. So if you call a number directly you much more likely to get a guy to come look at it for free to give you an idea of what it’s gonna cost. Bleach bleaches mold. It looks good but doesn’t kill the mold. A lot of mold killing chemicals include bleach but it’s not just bleach. I’m a little weary to give you chemical names. Because if these chemicals touch your skin they burn you. You breath them in they’ll mess you up. If you spray them without proper ventilation or negative pressure it could be a big problem. You spray them with an n95 mask your gonna get sick. The chemicals are sold directly to mold remediation companies and not to the general public for a reason. We’ve come out of crawl spaces and because we caught our suits on a nail ended up burning holes in our clothes. The last big one we did I had a few drops somehow make there way from my elbow length sealed gloves down to the end of my suite and under my suite down to the elbow where it pooled up. We’re talking drops and at the time there was no way I could get to my elbow because I was so bundled up. I could feel the burning but because we were up in an attic all day you wonder if it’s a cramp or your imagining it. Took the suite off afterwards and saw the burn. It was visible for a couple months. Take it from someone that knows what they’re doing. Even though we know and we take every precaution possible we can still get hurt. Thankfully because we do it every day we know what to look for and are always improving our process. Personally I would strongly recommend getting a professional to take a look. You can tell him straight up that it’s not very big and that a mold remediation company said bleach doesn’t work. Ask him what he would recommend. He may have a chemical to recommend. But again all the supplies to deal with it yourself it’s probably gonna be easier to have him do it. He may be able to seal off just the cabinet depending on the materials. We’ve considered doing that before and just sticking our upper body in to spray. Good luck on getting it dealt with but call a professional at the very least for advice.

Also if the leak is under the sink go below the sink and check. If you have a crawl space check below. Personally I’d wear a full face and suit but if your careful you should be fine. If there’s a basement check below the sink for a stain. If there’s a stain more than likely you’d have mold in the basement as well.

Hello, Can you help and let us know what is the product that you use? Thanks.

As you can see the back wall sheetrock wasn't spongy or eaten up so that was probably the beginning of the forming of the mold right there. If it spread underneath behind the wall that piece has to be cut out the bottom would have to be cut out cleaned up and replaced

It should be removed. Drywall is porous so it's likely at least 2x as bad behind the drywall on the paperside. This video is a terrible example of mold remediation. Spray and pray 😵‍💫

Thanks for sharing this. I would hire a hygienist to come perform mold air testing. This will help with identifying type of mold, the elevations and proper protocol to knock it out.

I had the same situation....I was rushed into buying a home in 60 days bc my landlord was getting a divorce and wanted to live in my rental. So I didn't have time to get inspections. So far we had termite remediation that was $1200 and our cesspool/septic line was completely garbage...another 5k. We have some mold in the basement due to our plumbing issue but it makes me wonder what the hell is going to go wrong next!! The guy who sold me the house completely lied and took advantage of my situation. Hopefully karma will come for him lol. Good Luck with everything and just remember...at least ur a homeowner now and not throwing away money to a rental.

You’re not alone sister! I brought place where the former owner was sick and resided with his parents. They didn’t inform me of the reason nor did I ask. I just figured he got sick with something weird and left. I had the home inspection and all was fine. One day I looked up in the corner of my bathroom closet and mold was on the ceiling. Recently my hot water heater got a leak. Mold came QUICK! It’s on the bottom of my closet door. I’m a clean it before having someone come to install a new one. After this, I’m selling it! Fortunately I also stay in another place where I don’t have to stay there. With all the people on this page with mold problems, it must be apart of life. I felt like I was the only one!

@@asmrdestinationsleep7917 Don't feel as bad even with the inspection they could miss it becasue its surface level. I did mine but did not do the other more detailed inspection. things still come up

I'm glad ya'll will be getting inspectors when you sell your houses to be sure everything is absolutely perfect.

What if it's a aluminum built travel trailer? The walls seems not like the ordinary materials.

@@joeslacker1020 someone put up polywall under the sink which is waterproof and glues on the drywall so the mold probably didn't even go into the dry wall as long as they caulked the edges properly

@@joeslacker1020 If mold is present mold hold© will fix it and trap it but it does not get rid of airborne mold which has to be treated

Yeah mold is a virus and will spread quick

for crying out loud...listening ti you and the operator of this video...you'd think you were dealing with freakin MONKEY EBOLA...we have been living with MOLD since God created this place. Get the EFF over it. My word...

correct it has been, so has a-lot of things that are very harmful asbestos lead and several drugs are a few that come to mind quickly. Just because things are created doesn’t mean they are safe. I’m pretty sure the comment was to inform this guy if he’s gonna post a video that the video should be done right. T flap on the wrong side, no negative pressure, simply spraying an anti microbial and wiping in this specific situation is stealing money from people and giving them a false sense that something was done. The homeowner could of used dish soap and had the same out come as this bozo.

Hepa vacuum is all groovy if you have that capability. My alternative to that is to have the shop vac outside many feet away from the house, with a long enough vacuum house of course, have the exhaust pointing away from the house, strong bleach and water solution in the shop vac., and the door closed over the vacuum hose as much as possible. I don't ever expect to eliminate the mold spores, they are ambiguous, and further, I don't want to collect and concentrate them in a hepa filter. Unless you have an industrial size ( and industrial cost) hepa filter, any hepa filter I have seen would become clogged rapidly and become ineffective if you are attempting to overcome a major problem. Just an alternative that is available to the d.i.y.- ers.

This is NOT great advice. It's entirely wrong.

We use an enzyme that eradicates mycotoxins

Stop bustin' their balls. It's still entertaining, even if it is all just bullshit!!!

Make a video mr know it all

@@Crashoverride1234 don't need to. Proper mold remediation follows IICRC S520 and should be performed by someone certified to do such work.

@@DoYouWantTaBeFree So instead of commenting then make a video about it?

@@Crashoverride1234 My profession is mold remediation. Not making videos.

By the look of that kitchen, a complete gut job is needed. I guarantee the mold is into those cabinets and possibly the floor & wall.

Great question! we don’t get much RV mold remediation calls. The substrates are definitely different and treating wouid be more complicated.

@@TwinHomeExperts Do you know or do you think that the type of water being used makes a difference in how much mold there is? Like city water vs well water or whether or not it does or doesn't hit a water softener? Here in Vegas for some reason even though its the desert there is actually an INSANE amount of mold here.

@@coleytoonsgood question. Did you find out?

Awesome! We love dehumidifiers. The most important part of any restoration job when moisture content is high.

Was just gonna comment that like tf?

Was gone comment the same

Lol not only that but he also touched the INSIDE of the mask right where his mouth is.

Do you kiss a chick after shes sucked on the dingus? What about what almost every dude does and smell the fingers after a good scratching of de nutz..? My guess is thats worse than touching the outside of s mask thats whole point is to filter the stuff from the outside to thr inside... is like folding the toilet paper after youve wiped once..

still stopped more then what he could of taken in :D a lil bit is okay probably...

Yes, negative air discharging to the outside air is SUPERIMPORTANT! In respect to mold on the drywall, you can definitely treat the mold if it’s on the surface. Just because there is mold on one side doesn’t ALWAYS mean there is mold growth on the back side. Some customers are not in a financial position to tear everything out, so we offer fixing the moisture source and dry down immediately with an aggressive treatment to minimize the issue. Thanks for tuning in and offering your feedback.

Thanks for posting your feedback, Zachary.

@@TwinHomeExperts thank you!

yes

Recommend replacing the bottom of the kitchen cabinet,if it's that bad replace the area of the cabinet. With the floor cut it up so far back,spray the area before adding any of your flooring/ cabinet/or the plywood. With the funds,God will continue to make a way in your life and home 🙏🏾.

That's the problem most people are having. They can't afford a company to come in. I can't. So I'm masking up. Pulling out any affected surfaces and spraying it down with a hydrogen peroxide mix/solution . I don't care if it looks amazing under the kitchen sink. I just want it spotlessly clean, dry, cleansed of the mould and then it will get 2 coats of KILZ and 2coats of white semi-gloss. Also a dehumidifier is key. The plumbing parts when I moved in were clearly the cause. Can only do my best👍

@@lalani888blue I like your comment. I think people should just go to the EPA website and learn about how straight forward getting rid of mold is. It is horrible that mold has been turned into a get rich quick scheme.

Perhaps you can assist me with my project? In the basement there is mold above the shower. It is from the upstairs tub leaking. I have removed the tub, the drywall in the basement, and the subfloor. However is a mold is in the floor joists (tgi) What product is best for wood. (For the record, this area has been treated like a hazmat Center, completely sealed. All demolition items were bagged before removed from the areas. I actually bought hazmat suits, I used a respirator, and sprayed myself down with straight Clorox before exiting to the safe zone. Here I removed the tie back and the respirator to exit to the home.) I can't find a good recommended product, only advertisements

Great question! It’s super important to solve the moisture content. Once that is taken care of, then you can wipe down the furniture with concrobium. We also have products that is safe we can ship to you.

@@TwinHomeExperts Oh, this is about selling products. Now I get it.

I absolutely agree. People that hasn't been through being sick by mold has no idea what they would do to NEVER come in contact with it again.

@@rrtraining2543 So i think I might have a mold problem. My hair is falling out bunch of neurological issues as well that may be because of it. Any ideas on what to do in an aluminum airstream travel trailer? I ifeel like it could be in my AC, the door seems like it's not all the way sealed either. The carpet is absolutely ungodly , I'm not even sure if it's been deep cleaned once. Thanks bro

@@joeslacker1020 kill it with fire

@@AG-sx9ws EXACTLY..... I told my roommate when we had mold she asked what to buy a told her a bulldozer rental LOL!

If you have an alarm system in your home you can have a wireless water sensor added to the cabinet floor, same for behind the toilets and water heater. If your (new) home has a water sprinkler system it's best to have a sensor on the water pressure valve which opens when the sprinklers go off. It's the best confirmation that there's a fire, as you cannot hear the detector when you're not home.

Yes, then apply a mold sealer to prevent mold from coming back.

We use a few different anti microbial depending on the surface were dealing with and the clients immune system sensitivity. Benefact is the most common anti microbial we use.

💕 best to you. Wish I knew or someone that does could reply

@@skittles2055 Thank you, appreciate you writing

A: Dont worry too much unless you know you are allergic. B: if you have black mold and you were allergic you would know it. Can you just tear out the items that have the mold?

Wear a mask and gloves if its a solid non porous surface you can clean it. If it is a soft porous surface you should probably tear it out.

And as the video says either take care of the problem or make sure it stays dry. With a bucket or daily drying if possible.

@@ryantong5647 we are keeping the area dry, we arent allergic and I'm not sure how to tear stuff out unfortunately
