How to Remove Mould from Rubber Window Seals

Published in Mould Removal 2 mins read

To remove mould from rubber window seals, you can effectively use a solution of bleach and water or vinegar as an alternative.

The provided reference outlines a method primarily using a bleach and water solution.

Method Using Bleach and Water

Here are the steps based on the reference for cleaning mould from rubber seals:

  1. Prepare the Solution: Mix one part bleach with four parts water in a spray bottle.
  2. Apply and Wipe: Use the spray bottle to apply the solution to the rubber seal. Then, wipe away any remaining bleach areas from the seal.

Important Note: The reference also mentions using an "appropriate amount for one load of laundry." While the context of "one load of laundry" may be unrelated to cleaning window seals, this phrase is part of the provided instruction regarding the amount of solution or cleaner to prepare or use.

Alternative Method Using Vinegar

If you are unable to use bleach, the reference states that vinegar can be used in its place. This implies a similar cleaning process could be followed, applying vinegar (potentially diluted, although the reference doesn't specify a ratio for vinegar) to the seal and wiping the mould away.
