CHLORINE BLEACH IS INEFFECTIVE IN KILLING MOLD FOR THESE REASONS
The object to killing mold is to kill its “roots”. Mold remediation involves the need to disinfect wood and wood-based building materials, all of which are porous materials.

The use of bleach as a mold disinfectant is best left to kitchen and bathroom countertops, tubs and shower glass, etc. …….
