We discovered the ice maker had been leaking when Rose stepped into soggy carpet in front of the refrigerator. The water line had a small crack and was probably leaking for several weeks. From the kitchen we could smell the mold. When I went into the crawl space underneath, I could see black mold all around the leak.
A mold remediation company wanted quite a bit more than we thought was reasonable. After several days investigating how to remove black mold from wood; we selected the Barrier mold control spray.
The order arrived quickly and we sprayed the moldstat barrier and cleaned the area, brushed away the dead mold, then applied one more layer to prevent the mold from returning. We also applied the barrier to the carpet to make sure mold wouldn't grow.
Two weeks later, with the carpet dry and icemaker water line replaced, there is no longer a mold smell or any signs of visible mold. Glad we found Barrier and would recommend it to others.
