Mulberry Mould Removal using Luxe Multi Cleaner
Mould - one of the most annoying, disgusting, gross things to discover when pulling your favourite bag or shoes out of the wardrobe. Not only is mould difficult to remove and stop returning, but it causes smells and can be very damaging to your health.
But why does it happen?!
So lets rewind back to when you last used your bag…
You take your bag everywhere with you: to the shops, on commute, public bathrooms, restaurants, bars, work, holiday, the list goes on!
When a change in weather conditions occurs such as overly wet, or humid or BOTH!...this creates the perfect environment for mould to form.
What a lot of us don't consider is the amount of bacteria that is left on the bag when we put it away. Remnants of food and dirt left in the bag and with the right conditions bacteria will multiply and mould will begin to grow.
Once mould starts to grow it will infect and pass on to other things if not caught quickly.

Mould can be very damaging to health. The spores can become air born and when inhaled can cause problems such as asthma. This can make cleaning difficult and we recommend doing so in a well ventilated area, or outside if the weather permits!
