We had a really bad mould & condensation problem on our walls – the 79p trick I swear by for getting of it in an instant
MOULD in the home is not only gross to look at, but it’s also bad for your health too.
But if you’re struggling to remove it without forking out a small fortune, then you could just be in luck…because it turns out there’s a 79p product that does the trick.
In a clip shared to TikTok (@louiseli1997), a homeowner named Louise, who is renovating a two-bed 1980s property in London, can be seen showing off the toxic fuzz growing up her cream walls.
“We had a mould and condensation problem on our walls,” she explained.
“So I removed it using this MAGIC?”
She then explains how a damp expert advised her to “ventilate the rooms and use sugar soap,” which can be bought from the likes of Wilko for just 79p.
The product description reads: “Make your paint go further by preparing your walls with this DIY must have.
“Wilko sugar soap will give you the perfect surface for a fabulous finish to your paint job. Can also be used as a powerful general household cleaner.”
In the video, the cleaning whizz can be seen dipping a large yellow sponge into the sugar soap solution, before setting to work.
After rubbing the wall with the mixture, Louise then shares a before photos of her mould-riddled walls, and an after snap to reveal the difference – and it’s fair to say they look totally unrecognisable.
Louise asked: “Has anyone else had this problem before?”
The post quickly went viral, garnering a whopping 92k views and several comments from impressed social media users.
“Just sliding off wow,” wrote one.
A second penned: “Yes man yesss!”
A third penned: “Mould is such a pain!”
And it’s not the only homeowner who has shared their mould removal tricks in recent weeks.
Fabulous previously told of a woman named Tayla who showed off the mouldy wall that was breeding behind her furniture.
“Come along with me as I clean this mould off my wall,” she said.
“It was actually behind furniture, so I didn’t know that there was this much mould.”
She then went on to share the 35p trick she swears by for removing the mould – white vinegar.
The bargain buy contains anti-fungal and antibacterial properties and has around 5 to 8 percent acetic acid which can disrupt the growth of fungus and other microorganisms.
