♦ Wipe mildew-stained areas with a cloth dampened with a solution of
1 cup of chlorine bleach or rubbing or denatured alcohol to 1 gallon
water. Pine-based or phenolic products also work well.
PREVENTING MILDEW GROWTH
♦ Use an air conditioner, dehumidifier or heater, if available, to remove
moisture. Use fans to circulate air and open all windows.
♦ Turn on electric lights in closets and leave doors open to dry the
dampness and humidity.
♦ Spray with a fungicide or other mildew preventive product. Read and
follow instructions and precautions on product label. Dry thoroughly.
