While most people are not aware of this but mold can actually be quiet dangerous for your health. Getting rid of mold is especially important for those who have a compromised immune system, lung diseases or other severe health conditions. Luckily there is a way to remove mold even when it comes to your vehicle. What you need to do to get ready though, is to have the proper protection needed for when you're going to be removing the mold. This deludes items such as a surgical mask and a pair of gloves. You'll also need to air out your vehicle (for a couple of hours) and check if there are other moldy areas besides those you've already spotted.
The whole process starts with a toothbrush which you'll need in order to get rid of bigger pieces of mold before you disinfect everything and also a vacuum cleaner. The vacuum cleaner is needed after you've brushed off the chunks of mold so you don't have any mold that has been left over from the brushing. When the time comes to apply the disinfectant solution you'll need to take out the carpets and seat covers and spray them with it.
They'll need to sit like that for about 20 minutes before you wash them. In the meantime, you can spray other parts of your vehicle with the disinfectant solution. Once the 20 minutes have passed you need to vacuum the carpets and seat covers clean front the disinfectant. Proceed by washing them and then letting them try out, preferably out in the sun. Once you are done doing this with all the other parts of your vehicle you'll need an air freshener spray to get rid of bad odors too. To prevent further mold growth you'll need a dehumidifier to lower moisture levels.
But other habits need to be implemented too such as not eating or drinking inside of your vehicle and keeping windows shut when not using your car. Also, you'll want to clean your car on a regular basis and protect the interior by having seat covers and waterproof mats on at all times. One sure way of keeping mold from growing involves spraying the orienteering with an antimicrobial cleaning solution. Maintaining a vehicle's cooling and heating system will also help eliminate the conditions needed for mold to grow. This job will require a professional which is why you'll need to take your vehicle to the mechanic once in a while.
