Supplies needed

Procedure:

  1. Mix dish soap with bleach and warm water in a ratio of 1:10:20. Pour the mixture into a small spray bottle.

  2. Wear protective gear such as masks, goggles, gloves, and old clothing to avoid contact with the bleach solution and mold.
  3. Spray the diluted solution along the grout lines to allow it to penetrate the mold.
  4. Use a brush to vigorously scrub the grout lines and remove the mold.
  5. Once the mold stains have been removed, use water and a soft cloth to wipe the tiled area clean.

Procedure

Note: After removing mold, keep the bathroom ceiling dry and well-ventilated to prevent re-growth. Consider using specialized products to prevent mold development. If there is a significant amount of mold that cannot be removed with these methods, consult experts for professional products and methods for mold removal.
