Im in construction in the southern U.S. mainly Texas and we always have mold problems on fire walls and sheetrock. These ratio's have worked wonders for me and saved my companies thousands of dollars im sure. You can do a 50/50 ratio of bleach and water or for even better results add a little TSP. If you have a big job to do get a 5 gallon bucket fill with 2 gallons water 2 gallons bleach and 2 cups TSP. Furthermore for smaller jobs use 3 cups water 3 cups bleach and 2/3 cup TSP. You can also try a little less bleach in some cases if these ratio's dont work.

Apparently so. I've been trying to find a better (and cheaper) cleaning solution for my new Bissell carpet cleaner, and water and vinegar comes up time and time again. The wetting of the carpet will allow the shampoo to dissolve again, and blotting out, or drawing out with the carpet cleaner should remove any shampoo in there. I suppose how quickly and completely depends on how much is in there. If the shampoo was alkaline based, then the vinegar will help draw it out (as vinegar is an acid). If not, then I guess it will take a bit longer to effectively rinse it out. I'm going to try this on the car seats, as the "valet" the last owner had done has left lots of shampoo in. More shampoo does not equal cleaner!
