      +Marta Leszkiewicz It's not that mold is magically immune to bleach, but that the spraying bleach only kills the surface fruiting bodies of the mold. The roots down below the surface are unaffected, as are the billions of spores floating around waiting to land and recolonize surfaces. To eliminate the black mold, you need a combination of chemicals and substances which will kill the surface mold, soak down and kill the roots, and leave behind a film which will kill new colonies.

    When I came back from deployment, the barracks rooms were all full of black mold because while we we're on deployments a pipe burst and all the toilets, and bathtubs were filled with shit. It was sitting around in the room for months before anyone noticed. The worst part is that they didn't tell us about it, so I flew on a plane for 14hrs, arrived at 2am to a room filled with black mold

      He explains that by the time we notice mold on food, it has already penetrated into it, though we cannot perceive it. Furthermore, the spores are airborne, and though we may think we've rid a space or substance of it, it can still be in the air or in places we simply do not perceive.
      This could have sufficed to answer the title's question, but it would make for a short video. He provides us a general explanation of mold in addition for our information alone, a pleasant plus. Also, there is no fear-mongering. You fear the dangerous spores affecting your health. However, he clearly explains that in typical places, they are in too little quantity to truly affect you.
      Finish the video. Watch attentively.

I remember seeing a little bit of black mold in the bathroom on the ceiling near the shower but never thought much about it because it didnt really get any bigger. only after watching this video now i realize my cough was probably because of that mold

    3:35 That's why getting a vacuum cleaner and air purifier that has a sealed HEPA filtration system is essential, especially if you have allergies or asthma; HEPA filters can capture the Cladosporium mold spores that float around in the air, so that way you'll have less allergic or asthmatic reactions to the air in your home.

      @@RyanSellman1 I can see how it filters, but I don't see how it can filters *all the air* .
      As said from the video, the air is full of mold. How could you filter something omnipresent in the air? It's like trying to sweep the leaves during autumn on a windy day.

    • @RyanSellman1
      @RyanSellman1 Před 11 měsíci +1

      @@BioTheHuman HEPA filtration is best suited for indoor environments. It helps control indoor air pollution. When you open a door or a window, outdoor air comes in, along with pollutants that are in the outdoor air. A home is like a sealed box, so allergens get trapped inside the home and just linger in the air, settle on hard surfaces, and get deep into carpets and rugs. That's why I recommend both a vacuum cleaner and air purifier that has sealed HEPA filtration; they can reduce the amount of allergens in your home, so that way the air in your home and the various hard and soft surfaces in your home are cleaner.
