Where can I purchase “mildicides”?
Question:
Where can I purchase “mildicides”? I need a fogger type substance for my closets/furniture. Also, does charcoal work as a molder smell reducer?
Answer:
You can find basic mildicides at walmart, home depot, or other such department stores. Charcoal, in theory, may work for reducing smell if you are looking for something natural like that, though I would think baking soda would work better.
For those interested in biodegradable mildicides, until a vendor comes forward and takes the step towards being green or we’re able to find an available product (whichever comes first), we encourage you to keep on looking.
I wish you the best,

I went to both Home Depot and Walmart, even Target and asked for a mildicide fogger or a fungicide spray, they all said they didn’t carry anything like that. Can you be more specific where a mildicide fogger or a fungicide spray can be found? They are not in the cleaning agents department.
Alice on November 17th, 2008Another poorly researched post on mold, in this case sending victims on ‘wild goose chases’ to local stores looking for mildicide foggers. A simple check of their websites indicates that they do not carry these items. Would it have been too much trouble for you to simply have your facts straight vs. giving erroneous advice??? (or is the real intent of this blog to lure the desperate to its multitude of adverstisements?)
Karl on October 6th, 2009MoldControl made by Concorbium is an excellent product for eliminating mold; it can be used on all surfaces, including clothing. Just follow the directions for use listed on the applicator. It can also be used in a fogger. Look for foggers at Home Depot, Builders Square, or Ace/Aco Hardware stores.
Adam Reith on January 29th, 2010Hope this info is helpful.
I am being charged an exorbitant amount for someone who used MILDCIDE…could not find it at Lowe’s or Home Depot yet my bill shows that is what they used as well as a ROOM FOGGING something or other.
We didn’t even asked for that procedure to be done.
Help
Just getting a price for a Gallon of it would suffice.
Lloyd on September 30th, 2010Hi, i thought i would mention that you could purchas an ozone generator (NOT an air puririer).
Google it and you will see how amazing they are!!
Even though most are for commercial use, i have found one for the home that costs about £98.00.
Karen on November 17th, 2010Has anyone a comment on the product AM500 antimicrobial coating? Their web site says it is non-toxic and better than anything on the market (don’t they all say that?).
