Mould requires an article to itself, so here is a copy of some information on this problem that I sent recently to my Hardware Ireland customers:
If you have a problem with mould, this is the answer!
If you have a problem with mould, this is the answer! Mould is more than an unsightly nuisance, it can damage your health, your home, it is unsightly and smelly, and now there is no reason to tolerate this microscopic fungi any longerMould is more than an unsightly nuisance, it can damage your health, your home, it is unsightly and smelly, and now there is no reason to tolerate this microscopic fungi any longer.
New to Hardware Ireland, is Mould X, a comprehensive range of mould treatments that will eradicate even the most stubborn mould from your home. Moulds will grow when provided with moisture and a surface to grow on. High moisture levels can be the result of water coming in from the outside, through the floor, walls, or roof, or from plumbing leaks, or even by moisture created by people living in the home, through daily activities like bathing, washing clothes, or cooking. Moisture accumulates within the home when there is insufficient ventilation to expel that moisture.
Mould grows on walls and ceilings, around pipes, behind and on wallpaper, behind curtains and cupboards, on tiles and grout, and around baths and showers. The good news is that now, thanks to ARC Building Products, and Hardware Ireland there is an easy answer to dealing with this unsightly and health damaging mould.
