Lysol wont kill mold (try it and you'll see). Bleach will.
Not quite accurate. Original Lysol that contains Phenol is a mildewcide. Same for original Listerine, it contained Phenol (Carbolic acid).
For the OP's situation, diluted bleach will kill any fungus and if the moisture issues are removed, there won't be any more mildew.
Totally acurate in my experience. I dont care what is in it.
I sprayed that stuff on the same dry mold on a car seat in an old car in my garage, every day for TWO WEEKS!
It did nothing! A little bleach and water mix kicked in overnight.
I' also tried in on some wet moldy wood during a house refurb. Worthless. Used straight bleach severa times and the mold was dead and gone.
Lysol = worthless to me.
