Hi there,
Last week we have done survey in one of the London Nursery School. It is shocking what we have found in there. Black mould was growing right up to the ceiling and moisture from the air was pulled into the wall so wall paper was coming off the walls.
Looking at it, my first question was: What is the state of the building where I leaving my son??
Hmm...People do not think how Black Mould can affect their health, how toxic it is...

The problem is that even if they clean it with the bleach, and it is popular home way trick, black mould still comes back. You paint it, and it still comes back.
To treat mould you need special product, which is rare thing to find in the shop on the shelve.
When you paint it, you just cover the problem and toxic fungal is still growing and affecting your health.
See below for details how Black Mould is affecting our health.

2.create anti-fungal active barrier by mixing special Anti-mould additive with any emulsion paint or use proper anti-fungal paint.
This is the right way to deal with existing mould.
