Comparing Spray-on Mold Cleaners vs. Traditional Cleaners

Comparing Spray-on Mold Cleaners vs. Traditional Cleaners

Feb 3rd 2025

Mold has been a problem for centuries in many homes, and there are many ways to remove it and prevent future growth.

Fortunately for us, modern life and science has made it easier to clean and prevent mold in any area of your home, and two  of the best products on the market are EC3 Mold Solution Spray and EC3 Enzyme Cleaner Concentrate. These spray on mold cleaners are designed for easy, practical application on both hard and soft surfaces.

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to use these products in your home.

Identify Mold-Affected Areas

Begin by thoroughly inspecting your home for visible mold growth or areas prone to dampness, such as bathrooms, kitchens, basements, and laundry rooms.

Prepare the Spray

The EC3 Enzyme Cleaner Concentrate should be diluted per bottle instructions or may be used full strength, depending on what you are using it for. Both products should be shaken  well before use. As both are  made from natural ingredients, such as citrus seed extracts and pulp , some settling or separation may occur.

You can then apply the spray on mold cleaners directly onto affected surfaces, such as walls, floors, furniture, clothes, or even shoes. For best results, make sure to spray the solution evenly on the entire moldy area.

Scrub and Repeat for Difficult Areas

For hard to clean surfaces, such as discolored grout, tiles, or stubborn mold stains, use EC3 Enzyme Cleaner Concentrate with scrubbing tools, a high-pressure spray, or even steam. These additional steps enhance the cleaning power of the solution.

If you observe the quick regrowth of mold in the area, it’s best to clean it as frequently as recommended and to try to keep it between cleanings. Regular application helps maintain low mold levels and prevent build-up in high-risk areas.

Comparing Traditional Cleaning Methods

Chemical Cleaners vs. Natural Spray Solutions

Traditional mold-cleaning solutions, such as bleach or ammonia, are often effective at only tacking surface mold. However, they come with significant downsides. For one, health risks increase as the strong fumes from chemical cleaners can irritate the skin, eyes, and respiratory system.

Second, damage to the area is also possible. Harsh chemicals can corrode or discolor certain materials, including grout and wood. In contrast, both EC3 Enzyme Cleaner Concentrate and EC3 Mold Solution Spray are  safe, gentle on surfaces, and do not emit harmful fumes.

Unlike many mold cleaners that rely on harsh chemicals like bleach or ammonia, the EC3 spray on mold cleaners use natural ingredients, making them  safe for sensitive individuals and eco-friendly.

The sprays are also designed for use on a wide range of surfaces, including hard materials (tiles, walls, floors) and soft materials (furniture, clothing, and car interiors). This versatility makes them  your solutions for treating mold throughout the home, no matter what the cause.

Cleaning Process and Effort

Traditional cleaning often involves multiple steps: mixing solutions, scrubbing extensively, and ensuring proper ventilation to manage fumes. With the EC3 products , the process is simplified. The ready-to-use EC3 Mold Solution Spray  eliminates the need for mixing or diluting, while the EC3 Enzyme Cleaner Concentrate tackles stains and odors without fumes. Simply spray and treat the affected areas and get on with your day!

Addressing Mold Spores and Airborne Contamination

Traditional methods generally focus on visible mold but do little to address airborne spores. Spray on mold cleaners, when used alongside other air purifying products, offer a more holistic approach to mold control by targeting both surface and airborne mold.

Environmental Impact

Bleach, ammonia, and other chemical cleaners can harm the environment by releasing toxic substances into the air and water systems. Spray on mold cleaners are made from natural botanicals, and are  an eco-friendly alternative.

The sprays are  free of harmful chemicals, making them  ideal for households with children, pets, or individuals with chemical sensitivities.

Addressing Specific Cleaning Scenarios

For cleaning mold on grout and tiles, using EC3 Enzyme Cleaner Concentrate is suggested and sometimes  may require scrubbing to remove discoloration. However, the product is  safe for daily use and does not contribute to the deterioration of grout or tile finishes over time.

On soft surfaces like fabric or upholstery, the EC3 Mold Solution spray  excels where traditional cleaners may struggle. Harsh chemicals can damage or bleach fabrics, while the EC3 Spray gently eliminates mold without causing material damage.

Make Cleaning an Easy Thing For You

Using a spray-on mold cleaner like EC3 Mold Solution Spray or EC3 Enzyme Cleaner Concentrate offers a modern, efficient, and safe approach to mold cleaning in your home. It's an excellent alternative to traditional methods that rely on harsh chemicals and labor-intensive processes.

And when you integrate the EC3 sprays into your routine cleaning and combine them with complementary products, you can effectively manage and prevent mold in your home while protecting your family’s health and the environment.
