How to Get Rid of Blue-Green Mold

Put on eye protection and a mask or respirator that will filter out mold spores, such as an N-95 mask, if you have heavy mold infestation.

Dampen the moldy surface using a spray bottle filled with water. This will minimize the number of airborne mold spores and limit the spread of mold and the chance of associated health problems.

Fill a bucket with a non-ammonia soap or detergent and warm water.

Wear rubber gloves and dip a scrub brush into the solution. Scrub away the mold.

Pour 1 gallon of water into another bucket. Add 1/2 cup of bleach.

Using a sponge, wipe the surface with the mixture. Allow the solution to remain for 15 minutes.

Rinse the sponge with clean water and wipe the surface to remove the solution. Wipe the surface with a towel to remove as much moisture as possible. Set up a fan to blow directly on the surface to help it dry rapidly.
