Last Winter while living in a Mongolian Ger, I experienced numerous health issues due to mold which had grown on the cloth and wood supports. This has caused me to become super vigilant about even the tiniest bit of mold starting to grow on my new Yurt. After a week of heavy rain, I noticed that some little dark spots had formed on the walls where moisture had saturated the cloth. MOLD!!! I’d heard that there were certain essential oils that prevented mold growth, so I did some research and ordered Clove Oil, Tea Tree Oil and Cinnamon Bark Oil. I then mixed it into a carrier oil called Caprylic Acid, one of the several oils found in Coconut, which is also anti-fungal! I applied the mixture to the entire front door, and the bottom 12 inches of the wall going all the way around. It’s been several months now, with plenty of rainy days, and I’m happy to report that the treatment halted the mold growth completely! This seems to be a pretty powerful mixture for mold prevention, and it smells amazing! In the future I’d like to experiment with reduced concentrations of essential oil to increase the efficiency when applying it to large surfaces.
