I am planning an attic mold cleanup-- Conventional wisdom is to use

The EPA brochure does little to clear it up.

Anyone with any real-world experience or other good info.


I can say for certain it turns it a perly white As for wether or not

It didn't turn my mold white at all. But I'm almost sure it killed
it. After using bleach twice, I realized I would have to paint again
if I wanted to make it white.

its dead, I couldn't say. I don't see why bleach would kill mold, its
not that harsh of a chemical.

Alcohol is not that harsh either, but it kills germs.

Perhaps thats why we like to use it.
