Bathroom black spots...

In the middle of a nesting/cleaning frenzy before dc2 is born and am irritated by black mouldy marks on my bathroom tile grout. Can't seem to scrub them out with bathroom cream cleaner - anybody recommend something else?? Thanx

you need some kind of bleach-based mould/mildew spray (Dettol make on I think)

spray it on and leave for 5 mins then rinse off-no scrubbing required (yes, am v. lazy indeed)

Lakeland mould remover is good and seems to prevent the mould coming back too.

I second the Lakeland one, Clucky.

the one and only to use is called Astonish Mould & Mildew. It comes in a big blue spary gun. i bought mine in Waitrose but I would imagine most supermarkets sell it. Spray on, leave for 15min and rinse. No scrubbing required. It truely is astonishing but unfortunatelly it stinks to high heaven. I actually wear goggles when using this product.

you need something with chlorine in it, much more effective than bleach which i find doesn't always work on grouting. I have a mould and mildew removed and it deffo has chlorine in it.....wear a mask...don't breathe it in.

Good news is i only seem to have to do it once every 6 months or so as it kills almost everything off
