Removing mould from canvas roll up blinds

Posted 690 days ago

Hi All
The high humidity we have had recently has cause mould to appear on roll up canvas blinds facing east.
What can we use to remove this mould without harming the canvas too much?
Thanks
Ray

We have the same problem with our pop top caravan on the vinyl.
I use Exit Mould, spray it on, wipe it off then wash it thoroughly with water to get rid of the residue.

Wet it with white vinegar, let dry out, brush off the residue. Job's done !

Here's a web site that may be of interest, if you search through it you will find a whole range of green remedies for many things.

http://www.greenlivingtips.com/

Following my previous post I am going to try using tea tree oil as a preventative on the caravans vinyl after I get the mould off it.

You may find the site helpful, it contains lots of advice for using environmentally friendly stuff.

Clove oil is best at preventing mould.
