Avatar m tn Wear a mask when you clean and use a good deal of clorox to kill the mold. For yourself, take Milk Thistle and a liver detox. This should help you get over the mold sickness. (Do not mix clorox and ammonia as they cause burned lungs and gas fumes!
Avatar n tn Generally ammonia will destroy this kind of mold. I know people recommend other liquids, but ammonia is the way to go. Before using the ammonia the room should be "dewatered" with use of one of more dehumidifiers. These molds like moist places. In the case of a school, professional help is advised, but in a bathroom use a spray bottle with 100% ammonia, go in, hold your breath and spray a three foot by three foot area. You should practice this.
Avatar n tn We just moved from a home with black mold and green. We spent 750.00 to have a mold specialist do samples. my advice is .. if possible move. if not depending on where u live...if ny area call and report to 311. landlords are responsible. yes, it can make u sick , but it is hard to prove that that is what is making them sick. we had to get a lawyer and it will be a long process . we ended up moving but we still were exposed a year before doing so.
1855970 tn?1325823613 A dehumidifier may be necessary The way to kill it is to use ammonia in a spray bottle, rather than bleach. You have to do an area no larger than two by two foot at a time. When you are ready to leave the house, open the windows in the area of the mold, take a deep breath, hold it, go in and spray an area 2 ft. by 2 ft. Leave still holding your breath. Don't get any in your eyes. Never EVER use bleach and ammonia together. The two create poison gas.
Avatar n tn Reduce the humidity indoors to prevent fungi from growing. You can use airfree air sterilizer to kill the mold spores and mold in your home. You can also take OTC antihistamines and topical steroids. To confirm the diagnosis, I suggest you to consult a dermatologist. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your dermatologist.
Avatar n tn A dehumidifier will also keep the moisture level down. And cdrack the windows. Mold grows well on windowsills. Ammonia will also work quite well but MIXING AMMONIA AND BLEACH PRODUCES A DEATH CLOUD. NEVER MIX THE TWO. EVER! You might also egg your parents to purchase an electrostatic dus particle eliminator for your room at home with what is called a HEAP filter. They are kind of expensive, though. But they will reduce your exposure to the particles that cause the inflammation.
Avatar m tn The mold under the pain has to be removed by sanding to bare sheetrock, spraying with ammonia, which will evaporate, and repainting. Also a dehumidifier will help as the mold likes moist places. I had a lot of mold when I moved in and this was what I did. The entire bathroom had black mold.

1694467 tn?1306349372 This is the best way to remove black mold from a bathroom, using ammonia. In the case of black mold, do three square feet before leaving for work every morning. By evening the fumes will be gone, as well as the mold. After the disinfecting get a heat gun (similar to a blow drier) and one square foot at a time, heat the walls. These "guns", used to lay tile, may be rented at stores. This method is especially useful when destroying eggs of insects. The high heat will destroy eggs.
11294269 tn?1422402907 Do not use bleach! Bleach is super and great for many things, more effective than what the hospital uses, but it does not kill mold and will ruin your car rug. Borax kills mold, it's cheap, non toxic, no fumes, etc. I even drink a pinch of it in water every so often. I am allergic to mold I totally get your freaking out and don't worry about thus far, mold spores are everywhere!

Avatar f tn The ENT said the first frost will kill the mold and I should feel some what better. Has anyone ran into such problem with mold? Please tell me more if you still face this problem and what you are doing to help it. It's making me depressed.
Avatar f tn I noticed mold in the bathroom. Can I bleach the walls myself if I turn on the fan. Or do I really need to wait on my lazy slowass husband. I wake up in the middle of night and cant breath, I would hate for it to turn into a sever mood sporing issue, I am 19 w and want this stuff gone before baby comes, however I dont want to suffer in the mean time. I don't think bleaching should be that bad if I where a mask. What do u think?
Avatar m tn First of all, proteus can decompose urea to produce ammonia. We have all heard the smell of ammonia. The smell of urine in the toilet is the smell of ammonia. Therefore, the urine odor of PATM patients is produced by Proteus. In addition, proteus produces indole and hydrogen sulfide in our intestines. Indole is another name for faecal odor. The reason why feces stink is because of the high concentration of indole in feces. The fecal odor of PATM patients is produced by Proteus.
598816 tn?1219542566 I guess I have adverse reactions to ammonia products and pretty much any household cleaner with chemicals in it. Toxic mold can also create problems. My sister had recurring bronchitis and ear infections, as well did her 2 kids, several years ago when she rented a house that had a mold issue in their basement (they got out of it and immeddiately stopped having colds, infections, etc.). Another thing that I have heard that can cause problems is high CO (carbon monoxide) levels.
Avatar m tn Most people do not even know of this, and yes it is a strange one....There are 2 things that kill mold, period......And BLEACH is not one of them! It changes the color... Vinegar is the mold killer...If you see "A PATCH" of mold and take vinegar and either spray it on or dump it on....YOU can watch the mold MOVE and contort and release spores as it is being killed....
Avatar f tn if its growing on the walls, then have your partner cleaned the walls thoroughly with a bleach solution.. this will kill the mold and can be done again if it starts to come back.. I would speak to your doctor more about it because as I said I dont remember the risks exactly but some of them were pretty bad.
Avatar m tn I was just presenting information about a particular mold that we could be dealing with that is hard to kill and typical antifungals cannot help us. This information is crucial. Not everyone is doing their due diligence to study in depth about it, they make surface level assumptions about it. I could have easily written off that patm is not a mold because we have tried antifungals in the past.
Avatar m tn I suggest treating yourself and the enviroment for 2 months to ensure that the critters are gone. Clean with bleach or ammonia and use bleach or ammonia in the wash with the hottest water. Avoid cotton as very hard to kill in cotton clothes without bleaching or get items dry cleaned. It is a battle but you can do it. Also sprinkle sulfur powder in bed sheets and on pillow to kill them while you sleep. Put sulfur in dogs bed to avoid dog problem.
Avatar f tn Oh and when can i get her fixed cause her urine is starting to get the ammonia smell and im not liking it too much.
Avatar f tn If you have a black mold issue that severe, it's important to get a profession in there for clean up- are you able to give someone a call to give you an estimate on the clean up? There may be moisture coming in from areas that will just cause the mold to reappear if you don't get each issue addressed.

Avatar m tn I just need an opinion on this because I have not consulted my doctor yet because this is not affected my daily life yet. We know there is some mold growing in my bedroom, could that be the problem as well?
