Before you can remove black mold, you will need to eliminate its food source and kill any live spores that may be present in your home. Remove any wet carpeting and dry out carpets and furniture affected by black mold over two weeks using fans and dehumidifiers. Once you have removed all of the excess moisture from your home, clean areas where black mold is growing with soap and water followed quickly by an application of bleach to kill any mold spores that may have returned.
