- Spray on an ammonia solution (1 tablespoon ammonia and 1/2 cup water)
- Use your finger to distribute the mixture over the stain.
- Rinse with water and use a clean cloth to blot the area.
- Apply an oxidizing bleach and blot the area. Do not use chlorine bleach on wool or silk.
- Thoroughly rinse with water and blot until the area is dry.
CLEANING MILDEW IN YOUR Tile
- Try to remove as much mildew as possible by spraying the area with Clorox Clean.
- Leave the room for about 5 to 10 minutes. When you return, most of the mildew will be gone.
