Essential Oils
Essential oils have made aromatherapy a popular name, but these natural molecules can do so much more. Safe and effective ways to eliminate black mold include using tea tree oil as an insect repellent, disinfectant, and deodorizer. For effective and speedy mold removal, try using tea tree oil, a natural fungicide that also works to prevent the re-germination of mold.
In a spray bottle, combine one tsp of tea tree oil with one cup of water and shake briskly until the ingredients are thoroughly combined. Spray the moldy area, let it dry for an hour, and then use a microfiber cloth or dry towel to wipe it away. Make sure to wear gloves to protect your hands, because essential oils can irritate the skin of some people.
