I bought this and in product description above says "kills mold and mildew". On the gallon container Iabel, nowhere does it say it kills mold &amp; mildew?

I bought it to kill the mold on my stuco wall, and I can tell you after using it it's still there but it did get rid of it on the floor.

It's extremely powerful and makes my eyes and throat sting when I am in the house unless it is in my basement. Even then, ozone leaks upstairs to my daughter's room and bothers her in there, so I only do it when she's gone or I am leaving the house. It strongly cautions you to do it away from people and is probably stick to that, knowing how it makes me feel to breathe it in. It does kill mold spores, yes. But I believe you need to run it for 24 hours to thoroughly kill the spores.

This product works great on mold! Obviously you need to find the source of the mold, but the ozone feature kills mold, mildew & bacteria. My mold problem was so bad in the basement that we could smell it 2 floors up. There is no more mold growth & now the basement is the freshest room in the house - this product is worth every penny!!

I've put a few drops in a glass dish (per instructions) to help dissipate some mildewy odors under a sink. The product has a mild minty, maybe a little medicinal, smell that isn't overwhelming and I can't really smell it when not in the area of the dish. I find it stops working when it has evaporated. It works okay, but I don't think it would work in a larger open area, like a whole room. And it doesn't "eliminate" any odor that is continual. I didn't find it was as successful as some of the reviews stated. I've used the Febreeze Set and Refresh little containers with similar results. Nothing I've found totally gets rid of continual odors. I've put a few drops in a glass dish (per instructions) to help dissipate some mildewy odors under a sink.

I did not clean the mold off but I did spray the mold with 1/2 cup per gallon of chlorox/water mix. It was done in the hot summer and the mold was brown in a week. The zinc has it under control now.

I would try peroxide, Apple cider vinegar, or bleach with a squirt bottle. A magic eraser is helpful on mildew/mold issues on other products. Thats weird that mold occurred despite the chlorination... Mine is used in a lake on weekends then tossed on a screened porch to dry for the week. Fortunately, we havent experienced any mildew/mold issues. I hope these suggestions are beneficial. Goid luck!!

I used the dispenser in both summer and winter. No mold or mildew in the past year. My kitchen where the water machine is kept is not air conditioned and still no mold. We're happy with our system. Much easier to use than always using the small table model. Some keep that model in the refrigerator. We store water in 1/2 gallon Ball canning jars. That way we always have clean water for cooking and coffee. Oh, when we go out of town for more than a day or two, we empty the machine completely. Also, we ran white vinegar through our water machine before installing the Zero water system. This cleared the system so the Zero water would actually be zero. Hope this is helpful.

We use the ozone generator to kill black mold. We still need to clean the area, and refinish damaged areas, once the mold has been destroyed.

Thank you for your question. We called ADCO at 1-800-541-ADCO to get the answer to your question. The manufacturer recommends cleaning the cover with a solution of one gallon water and 1/4 cup bleach. Use a spray bottle to apply, and allow it to sit for a few minutes, then immediately rinse. This should kill the mold. Please let me know if you have any questions. I am happy to help you! Thank you Jessica with Covers Direct

I'm not pleased with mine. I had more than a few refuse to seal no matter what I did. I'm in a desert so I don't know about mold/mildew.

I use my everyday during Cross Country season and the only time i ever encountered mildew was when i left just a little watter on the bottom, completely sealed, and left it there for a little under a week. So, Yes, it does mildew.. but not easily. Just clean it and you'll be good

I found it quite effective on much of the mildew smell but still had to wash linen with washing soda to remove the stain that is left. Mold on the other hand ,it depends on what type of mold as to effectiveness..Hope this was of some help ..

I have been tested for mold toxins and a doctor told me to use this product. He said it does kill mold and to use it as a disinfectant as well. I spray it everywhere including my rugs.

While my application was mostly to kill mold inside an interior wall where the air was part of this issue it worked in that application. It sounds like the air in you situation might not be as contained as what I had. If you could limit the air flow in the area for a day or two it should work, but you are really outside my knowledge and experience area.

Well, I did not have water leaking into my vehicle , but a nasty wet, musty smell when I first air on. This stuff did not eliminate it. So I Googled my problem. Someone said spray Lysol disinfectant into air intake (by windshield ) with vehicle running and opened to vent setting (NOT AC ). Spray it in as air is getting sucked in and VOILA .....bacteria killed and smell gone! I have to do every once in awhile. Works and lasts awhile ....living in very humid place .

It removed the mold from the air of my home. I did take it one step further and removed the air filters from my air ducts, turned off the heat and a/c, but made sure the fan was set to "on". I also used their Biocide 100 cleaning solution on as many surfaces as I could get to. It worked GREAT, and was a heck of a lot cheaper than those so-called mold eradication service people. I hope this helps!
