Have noticed it behind the taps and it's edging toward the grouting

Not sure what will get rid of it

spray on some strong cream cleaner or such and leave? Not sure as dont seem to get it on mine.

Give it a vigorous thrashing with something scratchy and some anti-mould cleaner stuff.

Have sprayed on a load of foam bathroom cleaner and will leave

And then attack with an old toothbrush or something

According to kim and aggie soaking cotton wool in bleach wrapping it round and leaving overnight works :) I usally use a little bleach on my cheap electric toothbrush and giv it a whirl.

This stuff - HG Mould remover - will get rid of anything mould-related. I use it on the mould that creeps into the shower grouting and it really is amazing. Spray, leave for 15 mins or so then come back and it's vanished! No scrubbing required. Lakeland sell it as do places like B&Q.

Agree with Squirrel42 - HG Mould remover is amazing stuff!

The cotton-wool in bleach tip worked - it's all gone! Thanks Smile
