Semi sane method. In the grout between the tiles? In that nifty piece of wood? Those rocks? The substrate? How about a final real solution?
Petroleum jelly + propane torch.
Coat the object where the mold is growing with yer Vaseline. Pass the flame over the grease quickly so you don't scorch things. Back and forth with the flame so the grease gets at least 5 seconds of cooking.
How huh wha? Mold spores can withstand up to 500F! The mycellium is way deep inside the stone or wood! And the heated up Vaseline is well over 500F, has next to zero viscosity and can penetrate 1 inch of wood or 1/2 inch of grout/stone/cement in 5-10 seconds. Deep fat fried fungus.
PS Use common sense. Don't melt your plexiglas or set you house on fire too much. Use safety goggles too. Body armor only recommended for those near impermeable rocks that have moisture inside.
Enjoy your mold free world!
