Removing mold from around tub

Use bleach, it works the best. Use 1/3 bleach to 2/3’s water. Don’t buy the Home Depot stuff and bleach at the same time. It’s a formula for disaster to mix chemicals.

Hi I just removed the silicone caulk from around the tub and the back of the caulk is very moldy. Presumably this means that there’s mold on the plasterboard/wall underneath. Is there anything I can put down the gap to kill the mold before I seal it back up with the silicone? Removing the tiles/tub is not on today’s list of things to do. Thanks!

There’s an anti-mold product – that comes in a spray – at Home Depot. I used that (and some bleach, I think).
