How to Clean and Prevent Mould in the Bathroom

After a tiring day at work, sometimes you just want to spend extra “me time” doing something relaxing. Where would you usually go? A lot of people like to relax in their bath, washing away the dirt and the negativity of the day. The bathroom is indeed a special place for some people who want to take time for themselves. So, how do you keep your bathroom clean and free from mould? Of course, it is by cleaning it.

Many bathrooms are very prone to microbial growth due to moisture and humidity. There are also instances when owners use different kinds of chemicals in the shower that interact with each other, especially when they are not washed off from the walls to the floors. Commonly observed red microbes are moulds.

What Are Moulds?

Moulds are microbes that are sometimes visible to the eye. They are the dark hairy spots you can see on your sink and tile crevices. They grow in extreme conditions, and they can be everywhere. Yikes! These moulds can affect your overall well-being, as it exposes you to different kinds of fungal infection. And if you are not careful enough, by not cleaning your bathroom from mould and other dirt, then you will end up contracting those fungal infections which are not very pleasant!

You wouldn’t want your special place to be full of mould! How do you avoid mould growth? Here are some mould cleaning tips:

1. Avoid leaving your bathroom with wet surfaces. You don’t want to see moulds on your floor and wall tiles. After taking a bath or shower, you can wipe the floor and walls with dry cloth. Never ever leave dampened clothes inside the bathroom. They can be a haven for moulds, and they will start to smell!!

2. Keep the bathroom ventilated. Open the windows and doors after taking a bath or shower. Open the exhaust fan. Good ventilation lessens the humidity of the bathroom. In Queensland we get very high humidity and this makes the bathrooms prone to microbes.

3. Disinfect. There are cleaning products that are good at killing microbes and making the bathroom smell fresh and clean. Disinfectants can remove a ton of moulds and mould-forming spores.
