Summer humidity and mould in Australian homes
Summer humidity feeds mould in rooms you keep shut to hold the cool air. Open when you can, treat what you can see, and keep still rooms in play. The Protection Kit is the room treatment. First Light is the treatment for the stain.
Why summer is a mould season here
Humid coasts, storms, air-con without a dry cycle, and washing that cannot dry. Houses stay shut to hold the cool air, and bathrooms and wardrobes do not dry. We will not invent a city ranking.
What to do this summer
Open the house when the air outside is drier, run the exhaust, do not dry washing in a shut room, and treat early spotting. The full year-round habit list is on the mould prevention checklist. This page does not reprint that list.

If you are in the tropics
The tropical wet season is a different page: wet season mould in tropical Australia. After a storm, use mould after rain and storms.
When the humidity drops off, switch to the autumn mould prevention checklist so the damp does not settle in for winter.
Questions people ask
Why does mould get worse in an Australian summer?
Humidity stays high, houses stay shut to hold the cool air, and bathrooms and wardrobes do not dry. Treat what you can see, and keep the air moving.
What should I use in a shut, humid room?
First Light on the stain. Lab tested: 99.2% on direct contact. The Protection Kit for the room.
Is this the same as your wet-season or prevention checklist?
No. The wet-season page is for the tropics. The checklist is the year-round habit list. This page is humid summer.
