Absolutely, the chemical composition of 409 kills mold and mold spores on contact, the only household item stronger than 409 at killing mold is bleach. Remember to wear proper PPE (personal protective equipment) including vinyl/latex gloves and face mask. Once mold is attacked the ENTIRE mold colony sends out spores the defend itself. So make sure the area is exhausted and all HVAC vents are closed beforehand. In the event you are an asthmatic or the mold colony is larger than 2 feet, call a professional.
