Like âA Tisket, A Tasketâ or âHey Diddle Diddleâ or even âI Am the Walrus,â the rhyme we call âRing Around the Rosieâ has no particular meaning, regardless of our latter day efforts to create one for it.
Mold and Mildew Treatment. Instead of adding bleach to the wash cycle -- which will also get rid of mold and mildew -- run a gentle wash cycle with 1/2 cup of baking soda added to the detergent in warm water. Add several towels or linens to the load. Add a 1/2 cup of vinegar to the rinse cycle. After rinsing, hang the shower curtain to drip dry from the shower curtain rod or outside in the sun, which also kills mold and mildew. The vinegar helps remove stains and helps to prevent mold and mildew. Keeping it Clean. Mold, mildew and bacteria build up on the folds of the shower curtain liner over time.
Fill a spray bottle with white vinegar and lightly mist the carpet. The vinegar odor will dissipate after an hour or so, and will help remove most, if not all, remaining carpet odor. Steam clean the carpet if the baking soda and vinegar are not effective enough.Pour 2 tsp. laundry detergent and 1 cup white vinegar into the fluid reservoir of the steam cleaner.prinkle a light coat of baking soda over the entire carpet, and let it sit for at least 2 hours, or overnight if possible. Vacuum the carpet to collect all of the powdery baking soda, which should have absorbed much of the odor along with any moisture that causes a mildew smell.
