Mould guide
Black mould on windows: clean it, then fix the moisture source
Cleaning mould without reducing condensation usually means it returns. Treat the cleaning step and the humidity-control step as separate jobs.
For prevention, measure the room before buying: compare monitor options for mould risk and use wet-glass vac options only for daily water removal, not as the main moisture fix.
