Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about natural mould defence and using First Light in your home.
Does First Light kill mould?
Visible mould requires physical removal or remediation.
First light is designed as a preventative product by contributing to conditions that are less favourable to mould growth.
Can First Light replace mould remediation?
First Light complements cleaning and remediation, it is not a replacement.
When used consistently following mould remediation and cleaning First Light supports conditions prohibitive to mould re-growth.
How does First Light fit into mould prevention?
Mould develops when environmental conditions allow it to persist.
First Light is designed to support prevention by working at the environmental level, alongside ventilation, moisture control, and regular cleaning.
Do I need to use a diffuser?
First Light can be used in a range of ways that allow its aromatic vapours to circulate through a space.
The specific method is less important than using it thoughtfully, without adding unnecessary moisture in mould-prone environments.
Is First Light safe for daily use?
When used as directed and in appropriate amounts, First Light is formulated for regular, considered use.
As with any essential oil product, individual sensitivity can vary. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Can I use First Light in bathrooms, laundries, or bedrooms?
Yes, provided spaces are well ventilated and moisture is managed appropriately.
First Light is intended to support environments where airflow and balance are maintained, not replace ventilation in high-humidity areas.
Is this suitable for homes with pets or children?
Essential oils should always be used with care around pets and children.
We recommend reviewing the Product Use & Safety information and using First Light conservatively in shared spaces.
