I am pregnant with twins that are on their way in the next two months so I decided to clean all my items and dig-old child they had done. As my swing, rocker, bath and Jolly Jumper game on a small frame. If I had pulled out all the mold on them. I will not throw out because it’s worth $ 800 articles. Is there a way to get the form from these elements?

   I would spray down the hard items with bleach (full strength, preferably outside) and wash any fabric items in the laundry, again with bleach.

   Try washing it off with hot water. Then use bleach water to clean it and then back to hot water. Then take the cloth parts off and put it in the washing machine, make sure you put it in the hottest water. Wash it at least 3 times. You could probably order new padding from the company. Just go on the website of the products, if you cannot find the product email the company. Good luck

   HERE YOU GO, I PROMISE YOU THIS ALL WORKS VERY WELL

   VINEGAR:
   When you want to remove mildew stains, reach for white vinegar first. It can be safely used without additional ventilation and can be applied to almost any surface –upholstery, bathroom fixtures and tile, clothing, furniture, painted surfaces, plastic curtains, and more. To eliminate heavy mildew accumulations, use it full strength. For light stains, dilute it with an equal amount of water. You can also prevent mildew from forming on the bottoms of rugs and carpeting by misting the backs with full-strength white vinegar from a spray bottle.

   BLEACH:
   Wash mildew out of washable fabrics. Wet the mildewed area and rub in some powdered detergent. Then wash the garment in the hottest water set-ting permitted by the clothing manufacturer using 1/2 cup chlorine bleach. If the garment can’t be washed in hot water and bleach, soak it in a solution of 1/4 cup oxygen bleach (labeled “all fabric” or “perborate”) in 1 gallon (3.7 liters) warm water for 30 minutes before washing.

   LEMONS
   You unpack the things you’ve stored for the season and discover that some of the garments and upholstery are stained with mildew. To get rid of mildew on clothes, make a paste of lemon juice and salt and rub it on the affected area, then dry the items in sunlight. Repeat the process until the stain is gone. This works well for rust stains on clothes too.

   BORAX
   To remove mildew from upholstery and other fabrics, soak a sponge in a solution of 1/2 cup borax dissolved in 2 cups hot water, and rub it into the affected areas. Let it soak in for several hours until the stain disappears, then rinse well. To remove mildew from clothing, soak it in a solution of 2 cups borax in 2 quarts (2 liters) water.

   THESE THINGS ALL WORK PERFECTLY. I HAVE BEEN USING THESE SAME TECHNIQUES FOR OVER 25 YEARS AND THEY WORK VERY WELL.

   Sometimes though something is SO DESTROYED by mold and mildew that it’s pointless to even try and fix it. If the item is so molded that it has eaten through the material, etc. get rid of it. its hopeless.

   Good luck with your MOLD!
