How do you remove mold/mildew from inside plastic toys/houses?


My kid has a plastic (LittleTikes) playhouse bed that we sprayed with water to scrub it clean. Water got inside and now it smells of mildew. Does anyone know how to make the smell go away?

clean it with a solution made of 1 part bleech and 10 parts water. scrub it down, then rinse well, then dry it.

For any mould or mildew removal, trying mixing some Oil of Clove (available from pharmacies) with water and soak. You can also mix it up in a spray bottle for larger areas, such as the shower or bathroom. Scrub and make sure you rinse well. Ventilate the area you are using the mixture in. The Oil Of Clove helps kill the mould spores, which minimises its return!
