This is the main reason bleach does not work on mold, the whitening is a side effect.

    Does the amount of time that the bleach penetrates an object affect the results?<br>Also, isn't bleach an irritant to the skin, eyes and airways/mucous membranes? I notice that when I wash trays in 30% bleach, my eyes get red and dry, and my face feels burned. I also get short of breath. Does Vital Oxide do the same? And, does bleach do that because I use hot water bleach from the steam into the air…
