The first is the sunlight method and the second one is the baking soda method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Sunlight Method<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You are going to need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Sunlight<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Directions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>First, you need to realize that the lack of sunlight is what\u2019s causing the yellow stains. So direct sunlight will certainly help remove it.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>If there are any rugs, simply remove them and let the affected areas have some time under direct sunlight.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>How long should the affected areas be exposed to sunlight? That will depend on the severity of the yellow stains on the affected areas.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>When the yellow stains are gone from the affected areas, just make sure that you periodically expose the linoleum to the sun to avoid any discoloration in the future.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The Baking Soda Method<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You are going to need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Baking Soda<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Soft Cloth<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Water<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Directions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Remove the rugs over the linoleum and clean it of any dirt.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Wet the affected area.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Take baking soda and sprinkle it over the affected area. Let it sit for the next 10 to 15 minutes.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Wipe away the baking soda with the use of a soft cloth.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>If the yellow stains are too strong, you might need to repeat the process a few times.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>After the affected area is completely free from the yellow stains, continue using baking soda for any subsequent cleanings. This will prevent the return of the yellow stains.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>[crp]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_Questions_About_Yellow_Stains_on_Linoleum\"><\/span>Common Questions About Yellow Stains on Linoleum<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Do_You_Clean_Linoleum_with_Hydrogen_Peroxide\"><\/span>How Do You Clean Linoleum with Hydrogen Peroxide?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Hydrogen peroxide is definitely effective in cleaning linoleum. It is particularly useful for the removal of organic stains such as blood and urine. If the stain is not too deep then you will only need to wipe it using a clean cloth and hydrogen peroxide.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But if the stain is a little deeper, you will need to soak a clean cloth hydrogen peroxide. Place it over the stained area and use a heavy object to weigh it down. Check out the cloth from time to time. If it starts to look dirty, simply replace it with a new one. You will need to continue doing this until the stain is gone from the linoleum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Do_You_Get_Mould_Stains_Out_of_Vinyl\"><\/span>How Do You Get Mould Stains Out of Vinyl?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You will need the following to remove mould stains out of vinyl:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Soft, clean cloths<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Soft bristled brush<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Bucket<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Dish detergent<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Denatured alcohol<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Germicidal soap<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Vacuum<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Fan or electric heater<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Towel<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the steps to remove mould stains from vinyl:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Take a bucket that contains one gallon of warm water and mix it with one or two tablespoons of dish detergent.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Get a soft-bristled brush and dip it into the bucket. Use the brush to scrub away any mould stains from the surface of the vinyl. Make sure to rinse the brush in the bucket whenever it is needed.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Wipe the surface of the vinyl using a clean, damp cloth.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Use a towel to dry the vinyl. Move the vinyl to a well ventilated and dry area if you can. This will help prevent the growth of mould in the future.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_You_Use_Bleach_on_Linoleum_Floors\"><\/span>Can You Use Bleach on Linoleum Floors?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Linoleum is quite easy to clean. It is able to withstand any cleaning product more than other surfaces. So if your linoleum flooring already needs some serious cleaning because of stains or disinfecting, it would be easy enough to do. You can use bleach to do either of those. Just be sure to prepare your floor by cleaning it thoroughly before using bleach on it.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While bleach is relatively safe to use on your linoleum flooring, you still need to dilute it using water. Make sure that you use a lot of water for this purpose. Mix one gallon of water with \u00be cup of bleach in a large bucket. You can use a mop for applying it to the linoleum flooring. When the floors have been thoroughly soaked, you will let it sit for around five minutes. After that, you can rinse it using clean water before letting it dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Linoleum is a fine choice as the flooring material for different parts of the home.
