I was feeling a bit antsy and there wasn't a thread yet at 22 past midnight.

Have a great day everyone. May you and the animals of the DT who like sunbathing get some sun.

According to my Spotless book it says

MOULD REMOVER FOR HARD SURFACES: Mix 1/4 of a teaspoon of oil of cloves in a 1 litre spray pack of water. Spray and leave for 24 hours before respraying. Wipe with a clean cloth.

As for absorbing moisture I'd buy a large tub of chalk, tie them together and hang them on the inside of my blinds/curtains. I do this in my bathroom basin cupboard because it gets damp in there.

Heh. Would you believe I actually have oil of cloves. A bit worried about asthma triggers tho

What do you think about cleaning with vinegar and then a spray of Conchrobium?

I've only ever used straight vinegar for mould and it's worked. I've never used Conchrobium so I don't know if it'll work.

I'm trying to remember a recipe for a spray. I think it's half water half vinegar and 10 drops of clove oil in a spray bottle.
