The 35p kitchen staple that removes surface level bathroom mould within 5 minutes
Lemon juice’s citric acid breaks down surface mould spores safely, offering a gentler alternative to bleach for households with children and pets, experts say.
- According to Vidalux.co.uk and Modern Maids, Andy Ellis and Justin Carpenter recommend fresh, undiluted lemon juice for tackling light bathroom mould in five to 10 minutes.
- Because lemon contains citric acid, experts say lemon's citric acid breaks down mould spores and disinfects while being gentler than bleach and chemical sprays around children and pets.
- Use the juice of around three lemons and spray for even coverage, then scrub with a soft sponge or cleaning toothbrush and rinse with warm water, repeating if residue remains.
- When dealing with tougher infestations, lemon is effective for surface-level mould but may require replacing silicone sealant, while white vinegar and bleach offer stronger but potentially damaging alternatives.
- Because mould thrives in damp bathrooms, especially during colder months, experts suggest combining soapy water followed by neat vinegar or lemon with better bathroom moisture and ventilation; a 35p kitchen staple can quickly tackle light mould.
