Even the most prettiest of bathrooms can be ruined with the slightest existence of dreaded bathroom scum. Mold and mildew can grow on many bathroom surfaces, primarily the shower and tub. However, mold also likes to grow in sneaky places such as in tile grout and between the folds of shower curtains. Bathroom mildew can be identified by its color: usually it forms in a shade of brown, black or even pink. Mold flourishes in warm, humid, and moist environments such as a bathroom, and particularly enjoys hanging out in the shower - soap scum and body oil increase the growth rate of bathroom mold. To prevent the buildup of mildew, regularly scrub the tub and shower with a clean sponge and your favorite household cleanser and then wipe the surface dry. This should be sufficient for keeping most molds away. Occasionally strong bleach may be needed to kill the mold spores. For a more natural approach, vinegar is quite effective for killing and deodorizing mildew and mold. Furthermore, the acidic nature of vinegar makes the environment unfavorable for future mold growth and also destroys any musty smells. Also pay attention to the shower curtains as they should be frequently laundered to prevent the buildup of soap scum. These tips should be efficient for keeping your bathroom clean and free of mold.
