So when the snow melted the water seep under my doorframe into the garage and or the foundation by the door so I got rid of the snow. Water pretty much gone but today I notice black mold on the wall. How can I get rid of that?

If its very light a spray bottle with 100% bleach, saturate very heavily and leave to dry, will kill it, may need a few sprayings. If its already started to "rot" the wood replacement is only recourse then.

If the black mold is in your home on the wall, a simple mixture of baking soda with white vinegar and water can help. So, add one part of baking soda with five parts of water and five parts of distilled white vinegar in a bottle and spray it on the moldy spots on the wall. You can also choose chemical-based black mold removal products like bleach or dish soap.
