Reusable pads washing help

I use Cheekywipes reusable cotton pads when I get my period. Unfortunately 4 weeks ago I unexpectedly taken into hospital and was not able to return home until this week. The pads were soaking in a mucky box for all that time (I didn't have anyone to go home and sort them out for me) As a result they've developed black mould on them Envy (gross not envy). I've tried scrubbing them with Vanish, put them through the washing machine twice and now I've left them to soak in cold water with yet more stain remover. Is there anything else I can do to save them if that doesn't work or is it just a case of binning them and starting again? Sad

Hydrogen peroxide for blood stains, there are things you can buy for mouldy smells in laundry, but maybe you just need to start again if it is mould right through the cloths.
