Mould Cleaning Service in Cork
How to prevent black mould?
In an ideal world, the best way to tackle black spot mould is to prevent it from appearing in the first place. All of the following can reduce condensation which is the most common cause of black mould growth.
- Opening windows and doors often will prevent moisture from being trapped, allowing your home to ventilate more efficiently.
- When using showers or baths, keep the windows open and the extractor fans turned on. Doors should be kept closed for a period after the shower to allow the excess moisture to escape.
- Keep lids on pots and pans and extractor fans turned on while cooking.
- Where possible, dry clothes outside. Alternatively, dry clothes using a tumble dryer or in a closed room with the window open.

How Does Mould Grow?
Eliminating food for mould to grow on can also be difficult. Minute particles of skin, dirt or dust can provide sufficient food for mould to grow in, even in the most unlikely places.
Mould On Windows
Windows, for example, don’t appear to have anything smeared on them, but mould can still grow there. However, any smears of a biological nature (e.g. handprints, food splatters) should be cleaned off as soon as possible before they have time to grow moulds.
Eliminating moisture is a big factor in preventing mould and is much easier to achieve. Window condensation is particularly prone to growing mould if it is allowed to settle or pool.
Reasons For Mould Growth
Mould (mildew) can also grow in places with poor ventilation and rising dampness combined. Some older houses (especially those with wooden flooring) can have particular problems with rising dampness, but fortunately, they also have good ventilation. Problems with mould and rising dampness occur when air is not allowed to circulate in or around items – mildew can often occur on stored items that get damp but can’t breathe (e.g. if wrapped in plastic or packed tightly into a container – my grandmother accidentally ruined some vintage clothing and books this way). Bathrooms are also prone to moulding. An extractor fan – or an open window – to allow steam and dampness to escape is vital.
