How is the best way to get mold/mildew out of a cotton shirt? I would rather not use bleach. Thanks.
Dear Mom of Lex,
To remove mold and mildew from clothing without using bleach you can opt for non-chlorine bleach such as Seventh Generation Chlorine Free Bleach that uses hydrogen peroxide or percarbonate1. Soak the moldy area in enough non-chlorine bleach to saturate the fabric for 15-30 minutes and then launder as usual.
