More Mold

I had already planned on taking out the trash and recycling first thing in the morning. The recycling can hadn't been cleaned in.... well ever haha, it has been two years. Sounds nasty, but it was just recycling so it wasn't that bad. Anyway, when I took out trash bag out from the trash can I picked up the empty bag on the bottom of the can and found another horrifying display of mold growing.

Ew! My trash bags never tear so how in the world did mold start growing down in there? However it did, I had to clean both cans now. Yep, most can assume my next move. I put both cans in the front yard, poured in about 16 OZ of bleach each and then filled them half way with water. I let them soak for an hour and then I dumped them in the super dry dirt bed we call our front yard. Followed by that was a super wash down in and out with my handy dandy Trader Joe's castile soap to get them fresh and clean all over. Once they were wiped dry I sprinkled some lovely borax powder in the bottoms and I placed them back in the house, clean, and smelling nice.

I know the mold is growing like crazy right now because it is hot and humid summertime, but I still do not like it, and together with bleach I will combat all the mold in this house.
