Removing Mold Is a Systematic Process

1. Containing the mold from spreading to other uncontaminated areas
2. Killing the mold completely
3. Removing the dead mold carefully
4. Protecting all the items infected from mold

The best way to contain the mold is to remove the root cause of the mold problem. If the mold problem occurs in your HVAC system, removing mold from there will finish most of your work. Install airtight walls to contain the mold in the contaminated area before you start removing mold.

The second step in removing mold is to kill it. People usually believe that they can kill the mold effectively with bleach. However, bleach is not an effective killing agent. The best product to kill mold is boric acid.  There is also new technology that professional Mold contractors use to remove large amounts of mold.

Remove the dead mold using a planer, sander or a grinder having a wire brush attached to it. While removing mold that is dead, you should use safety precautions. Using respirators and if possible full body coveralls  along with gloves, that will keep all mold spores from touching your skin

Finally, Close off the area from the rest of the home with a plastic barrier, protect future from mold by sealing off furniture with a fungicidal coating and covering. You could also use a clear coat of polyurethane paint to finish the removal process. This will seal the area.
