In this video I spray the attic side of the roof plywood that was afflicted with patches of black mold with this Concrobium Mold Control solution. You may be asking, "Does Concrobium work?". The solution will not penetrate a solid barrier. How long does Concrobium Mold Control take to dry? Drying time depends on humidity levels and temperature in the area as well as the surface to which the solution was applied. Generally, it will dry in less than 2 hours.
Is Concrobium toxic?
Concrobium Mold Control is non-toxic and is made up of water and food-grade, inorganic salts making it safe for septic systems. Concrobium Mold Control effectively eliminates and prevents mold with no bleach, ammonia or VOCs. Concrobium works as it dries by crushing the mold spores at the source, leaving behind an invisible antimicrobial barrier to prevent future mold growth. Concrobium Mold Control is an innovative, market-leading product that effectively eliminates existing mold, prevents mold re-growth and eliminates musty odors with no harmful chemicals. The unique technology is used by homeowners, professional remodelers, contractors and remediators.
Today, I'm going to be spraying for some mold up in this attic. I'm going to use this Concrobium Mold Control product here. Got this from Home Depot, and it's quite spendy, so go ahead and use this, trying to cover all the surface up there. I'll show you some video of what we're going to be doing. A Well, here's kind of some of the reason we're doing this in the first place. This area is not too bad, but you can see that mold starts to grow in there all along there as well. So what's going to happen is that stuff will just keep spreading and spreading. But before we get the insulation back in here, this has to be done. And it's all along here as well. Show you some areas that are a little bit worse too. See, this looks pretty good in this area here. But see those dark spots there and the growth there. So you can see we got the start of some here along the trusses as well.
Here's my approach to this. I got some boards laid out across here. Here's the very far one, and then I'll be laying in this one. And then I can cover one, two, three all at once just by laying in here. And I've got it as far down as I can, you know, without smacking my head on the nails above. But I can get all the way down there, here and here with the sprayer. Then I'll move over to the middle one of the next three. Okay, I'm getting my area kind of staged up here. And then I'll go down and get my suit on and my respirator head and get this charged up. So that way, when I crawl back up here, all I got to do is grab the nozzle and get to work. There's some more areas all along there, some more here all along this truss here is starting to grow. There's some real bad areas up in this Dormer up here.
Here it is the next day. Went through and took a look at what the results of that Concrobium were, and it looks the same to me. So if you want to really get rid of the stains from the mold in your wood here, get some dry ice. Have a contractor come in and blast it with some dry ice, and then that'll make it look new. That's what these companies use. Otherwise, you're going to be looking at this unless you scrub it off by hand. You can do that too. That Concrobium, what they do is they'll say, "All right, you know what? What they recommend is that you spray it on, and it seals it and it keeps it from growing. It kills it. It keeps it from growing more. But you'll still have the staining from the existing mold on there. You can scrub it off by hand with some more Concrobium, like on a rag or a brush, and clean it up to make it look kind of, you know, kind of like that. But I've sprayed all of this 100%, every square inch. And that's what the result is. And I'm having to take their word that it works because it looks the same. So if you're looking to resell your house or anything like that, your building inspector is going to come up here and go, "Whoa, you got black mold." And unless they know how to test it that it's living or, you know, not spreading, how would you know otherwise? Visually, it looks like it's existing. So that's what you get when you buy this stuff. And it's not cheap. So I recommend you have somebody come in and blast it with a chemical agent or dry ice. And a lot of these guys, though, they use dry ice because that way it's not leaving your house with some kind of chemical agent that you're exposed to or you have to leave the house for any period of time. But anyway, that's what we're left with here. All right, you guys. Thanks a lot.Ideal for
