The Philippines has only two seasons: dry and wet. While the rainy season brings relief from the extremely hot summer, it can also invite unwelcome guests like mold, humidity, and musty odors into our homes. But don’t let this dampen your spirits just yet! Here are some expert tips to keep your home clean and fresh, rain or shine, using Personal Collection’s trusted products.
1. Get rid of mold and mildew
Mold and mildew thrive in damp environments, like your bathrooms, and this is often more common during the rainy season. To help you tackle these stubborn growths, try using Tuff Naturals Bathroom and Toilet Bowl Cleanser. Its powerful formula not only removes molds but also helps prevent their recurrence, keeping your surfaces clean and disinfected. With hospital-grade Killer Virex formula¹ that kills 99.99% of bacteria² and viruses³, what makes this toilet bowl cleaner more special is its biodegradable cleaning and disinfecting actives⁴, biodegradable packaging⁵, and fragrance that leaves a refreshing scent of green apple and tea tree oil in every use.

2. Control humidity
High humidity can make your home feel stuffy and prone to mold growth. To prevent this, strategically place desiccants (drying agents) and dehumidifiers in every room to absorb excess moisture. You can also consider adding extra ones inside your closets and shoe cabinets.
To remove potential mold spores before they grow, regularly clean hard surfaces with Tuff Multi-Surface Cleaner. It contains Killer Virex Formula, a US-EPA-approved disinfectant, that kills 99.999% of bacteria⁶ and is proven to be effective against viruses like the SARS-associated human coronavirus. Infused with clove bud and peppermint oils, it also helps repel insects while leaving a spa-like aromatic scent.

3. Eliminate stale air
To counteract the stuffy air that often comes with continuous rain, keep your rooms well-ventilated by using an electric fan to maintain airflow, temperature, and humidity.
You can use Tuff Germban to freshen up every room with a fragrance that cuts through the mustiness. Its 3-in-1 power disinfects by eliminating 99.99% of viruses⁷ and bacteria⁸, including coronavirus, within 1 minute of contact time. It also prevents the formation of yeast, mold, and mildew. Additionally, it deodorizes with Fresh Breeze Technology, which targets the source of malodor and kills odor-causing bacteria, leaving behind a relaxing scent (choose from three fragrances!) that lasts up to 6 hours.

6. Protect wooden surfaces
During the rainy season, wooden furniture and fixtures can swell and deteriorate due to the extra moisture. To protect wooden and leather surfaces, apply Tuff Protectant. It takes care of wooden, leather, and rubber surfaces by repelling dust, water droplets, dirt, and more. It also shields your furniture, bags, and shoes from moisture, keeping them looking shiny and new!
