i think you should let the bleach dissipate a bit before putting another chemical on top.

Washing with (diluted!) bleach will clean it up right away.

the spray just keeps it from coming back.

I'll give it a shot this weekend and see what happens. It scares the crap out of me. -- (edited) - Krusty Dec 9, 12:14
We just bought some concrobium (sp?) for our basement. Hoping that knocks it out; I've been sick since we've moved in a year ago. -- nm - ewokicripple Dec 9, 12:11 12
- honestly, i found the bleach washing the most effective thing. over everything else. - Landie Calrissian Dec 9, 12:14 11
  - I have some growing in the caulking of the shower. Soft scrub and bleach/water spray is not helping. -- nm - Darth Sycor Dec 9, 12:37 5

    - i had that happen once, We just scraped out the caulking and re-applied. -- nm - Landie Calrissian Dec 9, 12:41 3
      - The idea kind of freaks me out. I don't like mold. I'm fraid pulled the caulking out will give me legionaires or something. - Darth Sycor Dec 9, 12:46 1
        
        nah, not legionaires. Ebola -- nm - decline Dec 9, 12:50
      - yah, and I meant to mention that above. better to be safe. -- nm - bb.-8 Dec 9, 12:45
  - yup. When I was at the farmhouse back in 2011 and Hurricane Irene hit - decline Dec 9, 12:18
  - Noted; I'll put that in the rotation. I've got to pull down all this stupid paneling to find out where the real trouble spots are. - ewokicripple Dec 9, 12:15 3
    - :( but again, be careful with the chemical and bleach mixing. -- (edited) - Landie Calrissian Dec 9, 12:17 2
      - I heard bleach + ammonia is a great combination for cleaning this type of stuff -- nm - decline Dec 9, 12:23 1
