How to Prepare and Apply a Tea Tree Oil Solution
To create a tea tree oil solution for mold removal, mix 1 teaspoon of tea tree oil with 1 cup of water in a spray bottle. Shake the mixture well to ensure that the oil disperses evenly. This simple solution is both potent and efficient, allowing for easy application on affected areas. Before full application, it’s wise to test a small, hidden part of the wall to ensure that the solution doesn’t cause any discoloration or damage.
Using Tea Tree Oil to Remove Mold Safely
Once you’ve prepared the solution, spray it directly onto moldy patches, covering the affected area without over-saturating. Allow the tea tree oil to sit for a few hours, which gives it time to kill mold spores effectively. Afterward, wipe the area clean with a damp cloth to remove the mold residue. For tougher patches, you may need to repeat the process a few times, as tea tree oil works gradually to break down and remove mold.
