It’s That Time of Year Again – Let’s Talk About Mould!
Did you know mould can start growing in just 24 to 48 hours in damp areas? Bathrooms, window sills, and under sinks are all common problem spots — and once mould takes hold, it can cause stains, unpleasant odours, and even affect your indoor air quality.
But here’s an important thing to understand: mould and mildew aren’t just cleaning problems — they’re lifestyle choices your home makes.
What does that mean? Mould and mildew grow when moisture, warmth, and poor ventilation come together. It’s not about how often you clean — it’s about how your home manages moisture and airflow.
Mould vs Mildew: A Quick Guide
Mildew is a surface fungus, usually white or grey, that grows on damp surfaces like shower curtains or window sills. It’s easier to clean but will come back if moisture sticks around.
Mould is often darker (black, green, or brown) and can grow deeper inside walls or under surfaces. It’s tougher to remove and can impact your health more seriously.
How to Keep Mould and Mildew at Bay
Control moisture: Use heat lamps, exhaust fans, and squeegees to reduce dampness after showers.
Ventilate well: Open windows or use a dehumidifier to keep humidity low.
Check hidden spots: Don’t forget areas like under sinks, behind appliances, and window sills — mould loves to hide here!
