How to Get Rid of Mold on the Ground Under the House
- 1). Put on a face mask to avoid breathing in mold spores when.
- 2). Make sure the area is as dry as possible. You may have to open up the area underneath your house and leave a fan running for a few hours to help dry out the area.
- 3). Once the area is dry, or at least as dry as possible, spread baking soda over the ground with mold. Make sure not to cover up the ground entirely, but do cover most of the area.
- 4). Let the baking soda sit for at least 24 hours. This should kill existing mold.
- 5). Use a hand broom to clean the area. Make sure to sweep up all the baking soda. This will also help to collect the dead mold. Alternatively, you can use an industrial vacuum to clean the area.
