Guest guest Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 Thanks, but now I'm a bit confused. (^__^) How would I clean the mold? Just with a sponge and soap? And then after I clean the mold, would I spray the area with white vinegar? Or would I apply tea tree oil with a Q-tip? And then spray the vinegar? Or only spray the vinegar after a few days when the tea tree oil has eradicated the mold? I need a step by step " recipe.

You don't need fancy blends. Keep theives for your own body when you are going into highly contagious areas. Purification is great for the air you live in but for getting rid of the mould stick to your two basic anti fungal oils and those are: 1) Oil of Oregano. 2) Tea Tree Oil [melaleuca]. The OoO is strongest but is very harsh to the skin surface so be careful. The Tea Tree is gentler but should work. - Clean the mould and then rub one of the above oils on the surface. Now to keep it off let's get back to more natural. Spray or spritz full strength vinegar on the areas after each cleaning and the mould will stay away. Young Living has lots of wonderful blends for many purposes but don't waste Hi grade expensive oils on mere mould. rusty - <vegwriter <rawfood > Wednesday, June 16, 2004 2:29 PM Re: [Raw Food] Mold > So you're saying that Purification is better for mold? > > Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 Thanks! When you say Pure White Vinegar, is there any other type?

If not repeat the process using Oil Of Oregano, but wear rubbers glove if you use OoO. It's super powerful. rusty - <vegwriter <rawfood > Wednesday, June 16, 2004 8:38 PM Re: [Raw Food] Mold (question for Rusty) > Thanks, but now I'm a bit confused.

Guest guest Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 I know about all the other types of non-white vinegar. What I meant was, is there more than one variety of White vinegar! LOL. Such as: distilled or pure.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 Hi You said I'd scrub the mould off with and old toothbrush and then scrub the tea tree oil in with the same toothbrush and wipe dry. You may wish to appy the tea tree again one day later. This should get rid of the mould. My question Are you using theraputic oils or are you using the standard oi;ls?

Are you saying a toothbrush would be more effective at removing the mold? Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you > saying a toothbrush would be more effective at removing the mold? - I don't know, I just passed on what I used, an old toothbrush. However I do think a tb would be a better scrubber than a q-tip. And btw I used Oil of Oregano, but tea tree is also an anti microbial oil just not as hot as OoO. rusty - <vegwriter <rawfood > Monday, July 05, 2004 7:39 PM Re: [Raw Food] Mold (question for Rusty) > In a message dated 7/5/2004 10:07:52 AM Eastern Standard Time, > spiritfire writes: > You said > I'd scrub the mould off with and old toothbrush and then scrub the tea > tree oil in with the same toothbrush and wipe dry.

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 Rusty did you use theraputic oil or the usual found at a health food store? In other words did you use the expensive stuff ot the cheap stuff? Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used Young Living OoO, but in my experience you can get cheaper fresh stuff of good quality if you have a local retail store that keeps them protected and has a fast rollover. OoO is very powerful and even the 'cheap stuff' usually works for this. Melauca or 'tee tree' is more common but you can find good qualtiy. The Aromafresh line is pretty good and available in most areas, but again, how long has it been on the shelf? For just killing mould you shouldn't need to spend too much. rusty - " The Mitcheners " <spiritfire <rawfood > Tuesday, July 06, 2004 11:20 AM Re: [Raw Food] Mold (question for Rusty) > > > Rusty did you use theraputic oil or the usual found at a health food store? > In other words did you use the expensive stuff ot the cheap stuff? > > Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
