Yeah we did that but any way of keeping it from returning that works sorry for being blunt 😅

Blitz that mold works wonders, think I got it from lakeland. Worked on walls waaaay worse than that, I'm talking thick black. Grab some of the moisture absorber pots and pop one behind the sofa, behind the bed or where you have furniture up against a wall where there will be more moisture I.e. outside wall, where people spend a lot of time etc

We had the same problem it cleaned it all with white vinegar then cleaned with bleach the following day once it'd dried to make sure I didn't mix the chemicals, then we brought some mould spray paint off Amazon and painted over it, it seems to have done the trick, we've had no mold on the wall for 4 months now🤞🏻 also when you've finished and put the sofa back, leave a gap between the wall and sofa for circulation and pop one of those dehumidifiers Bobbie posted above behind the sofa to catch any extra moisture x

Those dehumidifiers are great but they fill up super quick in areas like this, I bought a small dehumidifier that I can have running all the time from Debenhams for £30 a couple of weeks ago which is helping with washing drying in the house rn. It's definitely worth looking for one at a reduced price!

@Amber we’ve asked my in-laws for a dehumidifier for Christmas so gotta wait just a little bit for that hopefully it works!

@Bobbie never thought of putting one behind the sofa 😅
