I just went through this. I live in Hawaii and my whole house got covered with mold.
We rented a pressure washer and used outdoor bleach because its thicker and will still
to the walls better. There are products you can by for 3 x's the cost of outdoor bleach for this project ie. Jomax and wet and forget ect...Jomax is basically bleach with detergents added. A friend used the wet and forget, said it was awesome because it is activated by wind and rain so it continually works. I used the outdoor bleach and I think it works best with the presure washer. But what I was told is that if your growing mold it is because your house need to be painted again. Mine was just painted 4 years ago but that is probally because of our enviroment. The mold will come back in about 6-7 months. So, re-painting may be your best option.,
If your siding isn't painted then the wet and forget may be your best bet. If you don't have that kind of cash, then the bleach will work but it will come back. How long depends on the weather where you live. I hope this was helpful.

Can you remove black mold using hydrogen peroxide?

Pour hydrogen peroxide at 3% concentration into a spray bottle and spray it on the black mold. You need to use caution when using peroxide as a mold cleanup solution especially peroxide bleaches, so try not to use it on porous materials and fabrics. There are other solutions or chemicals you can use for those kinds of surfaces.-You can also use a bleach and water as a mold cleanup solution, but bleach does not kill the root spores. Bleach is just a temporary treatment for the affected area. Unless you get rid of the roots, mold will form again in that area eventually.

How do you remove black mold from your home?

Use protective gloves, eye-ware, and a face mask at all times while near the mold. Carefully dampen the object/area, then scrub/remove what you can. Be sure to use bleach or another disinfecting cleaner. Mold in carpets or drywall can't be removed, and so the whole carpet or drywall should be discarded.
