Yes tea tree oil is the best natural alternative to killing mould...it's expensive but you only require a small amount. Mix two teaspoons of tea tree oil with two litres of water in a spray bottle. Spray affected areas and do not wipe off, let it dry. The smell is strong but it will dissipate in a couple of days. A nice environmetally friendly alternative, plus you don't get the chemicals that other harsh mould killers have in them.

What if you use tea tree oil in your humidifier to kill basement mold THEN use your dehumidifier to dry it out?
Your basement is moldy because it's humid and it's humid because it's not properly water proofed or there is a significant internal source of humidity (like if you are running a hydroponic farm for example). You have to eliminate the source of humidity first, thoroughly dry out the basement, isolate it, fix any damage caused by water/humidity and then run the humidifier. Assuming that tea tree oil will kill mold, you will then end up with dead mold that still needs to be removed and the place repainted. In other words, the whole humidifier idea won't do much good if you think that's all it takes.
