WORCESTER shoppers are snapping up a £1 spray that has gone viral online for its ability to remove mould.
A TikTok star, who boasts almost 230,000 followers, was left gushing over the bargain spray that cleared up the mould in her home.
Worcester News has reported on several people whose homes have been blighted by mould.
And concerns about the toxins have risen since the devastating death of Ishak Awaab, aged 2.
TikTok user Positivami shared a video showing the effect Mould & Mildew Blaster by Astonish had on her walls.

And now shoppers have snapped up the spray with shelves empty at the city's Wilko store.
After being left upset over the sight of the mould she captioned the short-form video with 'not a nice thing to find at 10pm'.

And since posting earlier this month, the video has raked up almost 127,000 views
In the video, she said: "It's that time of year where mould starts creeping in and this is our first winter in this house.
"So I was very very annoyed and upset to move the fridge back and find all of this, but this Astonish mould spray is literally incredible."
She then goes on to show the viewers what it looks like after one spray and the mould has pretty much vanished.

Despite being impressed with the results, Ami added: "Obviously I know that this isn't a complete cure for it and I will try and keep on top of it, but yeah, for a £1 spray you can't go wrong."
This spray is available in most supermarket giants and retailers like Wilko on Cathedral Square.
However, when a Worcester News reporter visited the homeware store, the spray was out of stock.
Viewers flocked to the comments to praise Ami for talking about mould as it's something most people are ashamed of.
The comment read: "Actually think this is a really helpful video. I'm sure most people can get really embarrassed about having mould but with most situations, it's unavoidable so thank you for normalising."

Another viewer said she tackles mould with a small electric dehumidifier which costs 14p per hour.
One commenter said: "It is brilliant, I use it all the time."
A fourth comment read: "I've literally cried about finding mould in my house, the dream house we bought is turning into a nightmare. But we will definitely try this spray."
