What is the best solution to put on mold

There is some mold behind the baseboards due to water intrusion and I've been advised to remove all the baseboards and clean the mold behind them. I was advised to use a "biocide" but later I found that seems to be a generic term for a lot of things.

EPA says not to use bleach, to use detergent instead. Has anyone tried this--do they just mean regular laundry detergent?

I have also read to use a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and boric acid.

Not sure what to do at this point. I don't want to make it worse than it is. It's not black mold--it has a greenish color.
