Does chlorine bleach kill mold?
Bleach can kill mold BUT it's effectiveness does depend on the surface the mold is on. Mold can grow and be visible on both porous and non-porous materials. When dealing with mold on non-porous materials such as shower tiles, tubs, vinyl window trims, counter tops, etc. you can use bleach to kill the mold and disinfect. So what about mold growing on porous materials? In fact, using bleach to remove mold from porous materials like drywall and wood is said to aid in mold growth rather than killing it. Why is this? When bleach is used on porous materials like drywall and wood, the Iodine structure of bleach prevents Chlorine from soaking into the materials to kill the roots of molds and to make matters worse, the water element of bleach penetrates through the surfaces and feed the roots causing the mold to grow. Consult a professional if you are not sure.
