Brilio.net - When a building, house or room is left for a long period of time, of course its condition will change. Starting from the air which is not fresh, to the appearance which looks dusty. Moreover, the rooms are tightly closed.
When the room is closed tightly, sunlight cannot enter, making the room damp and stuffy. Without regular maintenance, boarding houses can become a nest for various problems, one of which is the growth of mold .
As experienced by the woman who uploaded the TikTok video @hijrana.hijrah. How surprised he was, after 3 weeks of leaving his boarding room, the condition of the room became so scary.

"When I returned to my boarding house, I wanted to rest comfortably, I was greeted by mushrooms," he wrote.
The woman did use a wooden cupboard. You can see lots of white spots covering the surface of the cupboard. Not only the outside, the fungus also reached the inside of the cupboard. Like it or not, he reported this problem to the landlady.

The good news is, the landlady replaced the wooden cupboard with a plastic cupboard. Apart from being light, plastic cupboards are also very rarely infected with mold. Many also suggested this question in the comments column.
This woman admitted that the conditions in her boarding house were very damp. It has no windows and no air circulation. This happened because the room was equipped with AC facilities. According to him, this is not the first time he has experienced this.

"It's really damp in your room, Sis, there are no windows or circulation because you use AC. Every time you leave it, it's like this, Sis," he explained.
Reporting from Medical News Today, there are many activities at home that can cause humidity. This triggers the appearance of mold indoors. Not only an aesthetic matter, the presence of mold can also affect a person's health. These include causing respiratory problems, triggering allergies, and many more.
Mold can also have a detrimental effect on the contents of the wardrobe, causing damage to clothing, accessories and other personal items. This damage is difficult, if not impossible, to repair.
Therefore it is important to know how to prevent mold. One can avoid such problems by ensuring rooms and closets have adequate ventilation. In addition, it is important to arrange clothes in a way that maximizes air flow between clothes. If clothes are packed tightly, poor air circulation can facilitate the growth and spread of mold.
The video went viral and attracted the attention of netizens. Many people also provided input on how to overcome it. This input is also useful for other netizens.

"Wash all your clothes, bro, you're afraid of what you're doing," wrote the account @bunaandrian.
"It's most correct when you live in a boarding house to use a plastic cupboard," explained the account @sitimufarikhah617.
"Ma'am, just a suggestion. If you buy a cupboard like that, after assembling it, spray it with a plaster like pilok. God willing, it's safe. Mine has been safe for 3 years," commented the account @nokre_aw.
