Dealing with black mould in the home can be a persistent problem, especially during winter when condensation and dampness are common. However, cleaning enthusiasts have praised a new product that promises to banish mould with ease. The Astonish Specialist Extra Strength Mould & Mildew Stain Blaster Spray, currently available at a 20% discount on Amazon for £6, has been described as 'magic' by satisfied customers.
The spray, which normally retails for £7.46, claims to 'vigorously blast away stubborn stains and mould' and, with regular use, prevent its return. With an average rating of 4.4 out of 5 stars from 191 reviews, it has garnered positive feedback. One buyer noted, 'This is great for abolishing black mould. I spray it and leave it to do its magic for a few minutes and the mould just disappears in no time.' However, they cautioned about a strong bleachy smell.
Another reviewer recommended soaking kitchen roll with the spray and leaving it on stubborn mould overnight for best results. Yet, some users still prefer other brands, with one describing the Astonish spray as 'workable' but favouring Cillit Bang Mould Remover, which costs £3.50 on Amazon. For those seeking alternatives, Toolstation offers the Zep Commercial Mould & Mildew Cleaner 750ml for £8.99, an industrial-strength formula with bleach.
While these products can tackle routine mould, severe cases may require professional help. Experts also warn that improper cleaning can spread spores, so following instructions carefully is advised.
