Bathroom Mold and Mildew: 6 Easy Ways to Remove It - Fast!

If you've got these allergens setting up shop in your home, the following 6 quick tips will send these nasty interlopers packing in no time.

1 Shower curtains need regular cleaning.

Wash fabric curtains with detergent and liquid bleach (or the color-safe variety).

Presoak heavily mildewed areas in 1/4 cup bleach and a gallon of water.

2 Scrub vinyl shower curtains with liquid bleach or a mildew remover before washing. Don't put them in the dryer.

3 After showering, sponge or squeegee dry the shower walls.

4 Keep the shower door or curtain open after each use.

5 Clean shower stalls and bathtubs using a non-abrasive all-purpose or disinfectant cleaner.

6 Mold-and-mildew patrol requires a mildew-specific remover or simply diluted bleach - but not together.

Which ever you choose, be sure to use in a well-ventilated area; most shouldn't be used by an asthma sufferer.

Disinfectant cleaners used two- to three times weekly will prevent mildew from getting a toehold in the future.
