A bit-by-bit guide that breaks down everything you need to know about how mold is caused and how to prevent it.

What is mold and why is it bad for my car?

Mold is basically a type of fungus that forms in the occurrence of high temperatures and humidity levels. Prolonged exposure to mold and its particulates can cause major health issues, particularly amongst those who are sensitive to it. People with prior breathing issues are particularly prone to the effects of mold.

Thankfully, if you notice mold early on, which typically presents itself as visual patches and is also noticeable due to its strong odour.

• Guarantee acceptable protection: We couldn’t recommend this more, spores from mold sources can get airborne and end up breathing in into the lungs. Ensure that you’re wearing a surgical face mask or particle mask along with durable, non-porous household cleaning gloves.

• Slacken mold before disinfecting: It’s a good idea to try and break up any patches of mold that you spot by gently brushing them with a toothbrush. A wet-dry vacuum cleaner is a great option as well, provided you have access to one.

• Use a steam wash machine: The steam washer produces steam at 180° and can easily remove mold, fungus and bad odour. The steam is a natural disinfectant and clears out any contamination.

• Clear off any residue: Once your mold removal process has resolved, you can use a wet-dry vacuum to speed up the drying process. You could also wait for the areas to dry naturally and choose to use a regular vacuum after as well. Remember, however, to use a disposable vacuum bag that you can throw away subsequently.

Now that you’ve methodically sanitized the mold-affected areas, you can use a regular detergent to wash your car’s carpets and seat covers. Another top tip, especially if you don’t have detergent on hand, is to spray them systematically with a solution of water and non-iodized salt. Allow the salt solution to dry in the sun until it forms a crust on the surface, which can be brushed, wiped, or vacuumed off afterward. Any unwanted and leftover odours from the mold removal process can be taken care of by using a good-quality car air freshener or spray.

We can’t stress this more; the most important step is to use a steam car washer in the entire vehicle, you’ll have a mold-free car in no time! As mold requires a wet or humid environment to develop and grow, you can prevent its reappearance by making sure your car is dry at all times and remains that way. A dehumidifier in your car is a great way to lower the overall moisture levels within the vehicle.
