How to Keep Your Home Mold-Free

Introduction: Why Monsoon Cleaning Matters in Singapore

With high humidity and constant rain, the monsoon season in Singapore creates the perfect conditions for mould, mildew, and unpleasant smells. Taking preventive action during this time is crucial to maintain a clean and healthy living space.

1. Improve Ventilation in Your Home

Let Your Home Breathe

• Keep windows slightly open when possible to allow air circulation.

• Use exhaust fans in kitchens and bathrooms.

• Invest in a good-quality dehumidifier to manage moisture levels.

2. Clean and Dry Damp Areas Promptly

Don’t Let Dampness Linger

• Wipe down windows, floors, and walls where condensation appears.

• Dry wet shoes, mats, and raincoats immediately.

• Avoid piling damp clothes in laundry baskets.

3. Use Natural and Safe Mould-Repellents

Prevent Mould Without Harsh Chemicals

• Vinegar and baking soda can be used to clean tile grout and bathroom corners.

• Essential oils like tea tree or eucalyptus have anti-fungal properties.

• Use silica gel packets in cupboards to absorb excess moisture.

4. Deep Clean Upholstery and Carpets

Hidden Moisture = Hidden Problems

• Upholstered furniture and rugs easily trap moisture and odours.

• Consider professional deep cleaning services for thorough mould removal.

• Avoid placing carpets near doors or windows during monsoon season.

5. Keep Wardrobes and Cabinets Dry

Protect Clothes and Valuables

• Leave wardrobe doors slightly open occasionally to let air in.

• Place charcoal, baking soda, or dehumidifier tubs inside cabinets.

• Use hangers to store clothes rather than folding them tightly.
