Black mould: Get RID of mould in your bathroom with just household bleach and TOILET roll

Black mould is relatively common in bathrooms, bedrooms and kitchens were ventilation isn’t quite up to scratch.

But the good news is homeowners and tenants don’t need to live with the unsightly spores any longer as a simple solution has been tried and tested by a YouTube fan.

Malcolm Peill uploaded a video of himself removing black mould from the silicone seal around his bathtub.

The British man videoed himself using household items – namely toilet roll and bleach – to get rid of the black stuff without so much as a scrub.

Malcolm uploaded the video of his black mould removal back in June 2016 and it’s sure to get people talking as the simple task could save hours of back-breaking scrubbing.

Taking two sheets of normal toilet roll, Malc rolls the sheets up into a long thing roll and places it on the side of the tub.

Next, he pours a standard household bleach onto the black mould. He warns viewers he’s using gloves to protect his hands – which is very sensible.

Then he takes the roll of toilet paper and sticks it to the bleach along the side of the bath to concentrate the liquid to the black mould area.

Voila!

Viewers then see Malcolm timing 12 hours on a clock, recommending viewers possibly leave the solution overnight.

Come the morning, the YouTuber peels back the toilet roll with a gloved hand and, as if by magic, the black mould is gone.

As predicted, the video has been incredibly popular with nearly 2.8 million views and thousands of comments from people across the globe.

One fan said: “Absolutely brilliant. I’ve tried everything over the years and was about to rip out all the sealant and start again.

“When I removed the tissue after 12 hours, it was like magic had happened. I could not believe it, I just kept staring at this pristine white sealant!”

Another added: “I tried this and yes it really works i was skeptical at first but i did exactly what you said with bleach and toilet paper put it on before bed and woke the next morning and mold was gone thanks so much you rock dude.”

Malcolm commented on the video comments thanking his fans for their nice comments. He added: “Thanks for the positive comments. It’s good to know it’s been useful to folk.”

Just six months ago a user said: “Sir you have to know that of ALL the 1000’s of tips here, this is – THE – top one, like have your cake and eat it too. Yes, I was preparing round 2 of near fruitless elbow grease. But on this, next morning, Wala! It was like someone came and put fresh silicone around. THX!”

Looks like top tip we’ll be trying tonight on our bathroom.
