1. Find the cause
   It's worth finding out where molds come from on your walls. Depending on the specific cause of the mold, a completely different method is used to fight it

2. Fungicide
   If mold occurs only on the surface of the walls, it is enough to use a stiff bristle brush and a fungicide. Clean the soiled surface with a brush (immerse it in water), then apply a fungicide to the cleaned area.

3. Anti-microbial
   In stores you can buy ready-made products designed just to remove mildew from the walls. They contain detailed instructions on how to proceed.

4. Reduce the amount of moisture
   It is very important when removing mildew from the walls to take care of lowering moisture in the rooms.

5. Keep as much light as possible
   Make sure your flat is as sunny as possible. Sunlight is extremely harmful to mildew.
