Frequently asked in Santa Monica
What's the difference between bleach and vinegar for mold?
In Santa Monica, many people wonder if bleach or vinegar works best. While both can kill surface mold, they aren't ideal for deep mold problems. Bleach mostly cleans the surface and can't penetrate porous materials like drywall. Vinegar is acidic and can kill more types of mold, but it's still best left for small areas. For a serious mold issue in Santa Monica, professional treatment is the way to go.
