B&M is selling a cheap hack that can “stop mould dead” in the bathrooms and kitchen.
The brilliant sealant – currently selling at half price – can help you get rid of mildew spores that may appear on damp ceilings and walls.
B&M is selling the powerful Evo-Stik Stops resistant sealant for just £3.99 – that’s 50 per cent less than its original price of £7.99.
It is a highly effective hack that has been specifically designed to stop fungi and mould growth.
And is ideal for sealing around baths, showers and shower trays, basins, kitchen worktops, tiles and stainless steel sink-tops – the top places where moulds tend to show up.

And in even better news, it doesn’t cost an arm and a leg to put right.

What if I already have mould in my home?
Many experts say that bleach is all you need if you neither own nor want to buy specialised cleaning sprays and paints.
If using bleach, mix four parts of water with one part bleach
You’ll also need a stiff brush, a bucket of water with cloth, and another cloth for drying
Apply your solution to the affected areas (including a few inches around visible mould to kill any mould not yet visible)
Scrub it firmly with a strong brush
Wait for as long as possible or until the mould completely disappears from sight and rinse the treated areas thoroughly.
Pat dry the area and allow it to completely dry before moving any furniture or placing items in front of the area.
