Check where moisture persists or leaks occur; fix causes and do not paint over mold.
Do not attempt cleanup if you are medically vulnerable or damage is extensive; contact building management or a professional.
Only for small safely manageable hard surfaces, wear appropriate protection, clean with detergent and water, and dry fully.
Never mix cleaners, especially chlorine bleach and ammonia. Maintain ventilation and address the water source.
