Shower stall mold?: It depends on what kind of mold and where. If this is just mold in the shower or bathroom, a solution of 10% bleach (1 part bleach plus 9 parts water) works well. One should be sure to wear waterproof gloves (such as dish-washing gloves) and ventilate the room with good air flow. Also, one should wear old clothes because splattered bleach will ruin the color on new clothes.
