A Piece of Paradise - Mold


It is hard to capture in a picture, but all of the odd green stuff in the picture is mold. It grows quickly and often at our Knockpatrick home. During the rainy months, this "creature" would visit us approx. weekly. If we did not clean certain surfaces weekly, it would soon look like the picture above. The stuff is nasty, it gets on our clothes in the closet, and it makes things feel dirty all of the time. We have now learned that we need to empty our closet when gone for a long period of time. Anyways, I usually try to spin posts like this to say something positive, but I have not found it yet regarding the mold. If you have ideas regarding how to manage this, please send it our way. Please do not say, "maybe you should try a bleach solution," because we could dip it in pure bleach and it doesnt help. Thanks and enjoy a bit of paradise!

Would a dehumidifier help? Or is that just like emptying the ocean with a bucket ( :
