White mould remover

    I've got white mould growing across one wall of a concrete brick shed, it's also spreading to things stored in there

    Anyone got suggestions to eradicate it completely? Probably hard with such porous bricks

    Would you say the shed is very air tight? Is the said wall north facing? Might want to install an air vent it 2 in the walls. One thats adjustable to being opened and closed.

    Orther option is some thermal insulation board on that wall.

    I'd say more ventilation will help and be a cheaper option firstly

    Not airtight at all, roof is just corrugated roofing sheet, so plenty of air getting in it

    Could be dampness on that wall. That's on outside of it? Plaster and more so what's at the ground outside?

    Its up against someones extension so can't see if any gap or anything, looks to be completely flat against it.

    If you think there's no leaks getting in and the wall is dry but the white mould I'd go the thermal board route
