How do I get rid of mlod and mildew in my basement?

Answer 1

You need to get rid of the moisture or the m/m will just keep coming back. Getting a de-humidifier to take all the moisture out of the basement. The get come back and spray with bleach to kill the mold and mildew that's already there.

Answer 2

Start with Lyslo spray then mop and rince with a good mildew/mold product. This generally is caused by a moist basement. You could buy a dehumidifier to place down there a have it run constently. You can either go down and empty the bucket periodically or but a model that drains into a drain or a sump-pump.

Answer 3

Greetings!

Put some bleach in a spray bottle, like 2 or 3 ounces and then fill with water and spray everything. Bleach kills mold and mildew instantly.
To prevent it in the future pick up a bathroom exhaust fan and hook a dryer hose to it and let it exhaust outside.
This can be a cheap fix, don't get sucked into anything expensive.

Good Luck

Answer 4

First you have to solve the reason it is down there...excessive moisture. Get a dehumidifier and check to be sure you do not have water leaks from foundation. Get gutter extentions so that the rain water is not coming down next to foundation.
