Safeguard the rest of the house by insulating the area where the clean up is going to take place. Put a sheet on doorways or seal air ducts and vents to prevent the spores from spreading to other areas of the house.

How to dispose of cooking oil properly
Scrub the area with the bleach solution and rub with towels or a sponge. Ideally, let the bleach solution sit on the area for at least 15 minutes. Do not reuse towels once you are done cleaning. Throw them away in the bin to avoid the risk of letting the spores spread to other parts of the house.

You can also use commercial fungicides to treat the mold instead of the bleach solution. Alternatively, you can apply it on the affected area after you clean it. It is also possible to use 250 ml of borax and 4 litres of hot water. Spray the solution on the moldy area and let it sit for several minutes. Scrub it with a brush.
