Tips to Prevent Your Bathroom from Moss and Mildew

Humid temperatures in the bathroom can be a breeding ground for mold and mildew. But you don’t need to worry, because removing mold and mildew in the bathroom is not something complicated. There are various easy ways to remove mold and mildew from your bathroom, but the first thing you need to do is prevent mold and mildew from appearing in the room. Check out the following tips to prevent your bathroom from growing moss and mildew!

 

1. Controlling Humidity

As explained above, bathroom activities that are always related to water make this room potentially more humid than other rooms. For that, we need to control the humidity of the bathroom. One way to do this is by routinely checking the drains in the bathroom, such as pipes and faucets.

2. Air ventilation

Air vents function as a place for air exchange. If the air ventilation conditions in your bathroom are good, then the air temperature in the bathroom will be better. Good air ventilation will prevent mold and mildew from forming.

3. Fix Bathroom Tiles and Walls

If the tiles and walls of your bathroom are damaged, you must repair them immediately to avoid water buildup between the grout or cracks in the tiles and walls. The reason is, the water that accumulates will become a place for fungus and moss to grow.

4. Choose Quality Wall Paint

The quality of wall paint can be one of the factors causing the growth of moss and fungus. For that, choose a wall paint that is of good quality and able to prevent mold and mildew such as antibacterial paint.
