I love this company! They have a really fun spin on all their products and their customer service agents all have a great sense of humor. (Yes, I speak with the companies of all the products I am reviewing. Bad customer service gets you a stink eye from me). If you read their story it actually starts with cookies and bacon. I mean there is no way a company like this could put out a bad product right? Let’s take a look!
Mold Monster products are non-toxic, antimicrobial and environmentally friendly. They are safe to use on any material with no bleach or harmful chemicals. They are designed to render mold inactive.

Final Verdict
I gave Mold Monster a shot and used the Outdoor version on some shower mold at a friend’s house. It was no surprise that after spraying it on nothing happened. The mold was still there. That’s because there is no such thing as a non-toxic, no scrub mold remover. You have to use some elbow grease. I used my tried and true method to clean mold in the shower grout and Mold Monster did work at that point.
I decided to spray it on this super smelly travel bag that had been sitting outside for a while. I gave it a good spraying and left it for a day. I will admit, it smelled better. But there was still some powdery mildew on the bag.
I do believe that the Mold Monster line of products can work to help render mold inactive however, you still need to use some elbow grease to actually remove mold. It’s certainly a plus that is inhibits mold growth for a short time but it isn’t a long term solution. You have to practice good mold prevention and leak prevention practices for that.
