- 1). Remove everything from the cabinet and visually inspect it carefully before setting it aside. Separate any items that may have mold on them to decide whether or not you would rather clean it or discard. Food packages with mold on them should be tossed out just in case somehow the mold has gotten inside.
- 2). Dampen the molded area with water to help reduce the chances of mold spores getting into the air and relocating. Lightly mist the area with clean water in a spray bottle.
- 3). Lay newspapers down around the cabinet to collect mold debris.
- 4). Brush loose as mold of the mold as possible with a medium bristle brush; push the loose mold out of the cabinet onto the newspaper below.
- 5). Mix one part 3 percent hydrogen peroxide with three parts water in a spray bottle and saturate the area thoroughly. Repeat after about 15 minutes or when the area is completely dry.
- 6). Dampen the area once more with the solution and scrub with a damp cloth or sponge.
- 7). Rinse the area well with clean water to remove any residual debris.
- 8). Place a fan nearby and keep the cabinet door open to allow the area to dry completely.
