Black Mold - How to remove it?

[Molelaner]

Have you considered using a mixture of white vinegar and baking soda? I've heard it can be pretty effective for mold removal. You could try filling the tank with this solution, letting it sit for a while, then scrubbing it out thoroughly. Just make sure to rinse it out thoroughly afterward. Also, if you're still on the lookout for solutions, I came across some information about water damage restoration services that include mold removal. You might want to check out www.alldryus.com for more details. They could provide some valuable insights tailored to your specific situation.

It's bacteria.

Bleach will kill the "bacteria"!
Be generous with the bleach/water ratio mix.

Buy a bottle or two of pool shock (sodium hypochlorite) and pour it into the drum. This will kill the mold and allow it to detach. after that, just rinse it really good.

I am pretty cheap but I'm lazier than cheap... Throw it out and buy a new one.

Also, don't look inside of the tanks, no problem to see here!!!!

Dealing with black mold can be pretty challenging, but it's manageable with the right approach. First, ensure you wear protective gear like gloves and a mask to avoid direct contact with the mold. Start by scrubbing the affected areas with a mixture of water and detergent. If the mold persists, you can use a solution of bleach and water (one cup of bleach in one gallon of water). Apply it to the moldy areas and let it sit for 15 minutes before scrubbing and rinsing. Ensure the area is well-ventilated during this process. For larger infestations or if the mold keeps coming back, it might be wise to seek professional help. Companies like https://www.ssrestore.com/ specialize in mold removal and can ensure that all the mold is completely eradicated. They can also help identify and fix the underlying moisture issues that cause mold growth.
