Bleach

[Em.ma]

Hi i just used bleach and water to scrub the mould of my big outside wall and my blind.
well it worked on my wall quite wall but my blinds are still black lol. anyway i had a cut on my hand when using the bleach and even after scrubbing my hands after my hands still smell of bleach and i have a taste in my mouth like bleach. I kepy my window open and door open whilst using the bleach- ive never used it my self before.
Happy that my wall looks better but my blinds look like a dirty chimney still lol.
I showered after aswell- but i had poured the dirty water down the bath i showered even though i rinsed it. i put my top i was wearing back on but cahnged my pj trousers as they got wet and put my dressing gown on.

Emma, take a second to calm down.

This is normal, you've used bleach and its not going to hamr you unless you drink it. As long as you used some rubber gloves or kept it off your hands your be fine, if you didn't then iit might be abit sore but nothing more, okay. x

Hey Emma its all good, dont worry the waxy feeling is normal it will go by later today. I use bleach all the time and had a few mishaps with it and its fine.

Did you wear gloves?

Good that you kept the window open, as long as you do that you will be fine!
