Mold returns when it’s damp and neglected—kind of like that ex who keeps texting. To prevent a sequel, fix any leaks or humidity issues in your bathroom or kitchen. Use an exhaust fan when you shower, or crack a window while cooking. If your ceiling has a recurring mold problem, consider a dehumidifier. It’s not sexy, but neither is scrubbing mold every month.
You can also buy a mold-resistant paint for a little extra insurance. Paint it on like you’re sealing a treasure chest. Because guess what? A clean, mold-free ceiling is treasure.
