Mould on Shirt !!!

:eek: My DH and I went to a ball, where he wore a white shirt with his tux. The problem is he sweated a lot (dancing, hot night etc) and when we got home at, oh, 4.00am he just chucked his shirt in the wash bin, where it sat for a couple of days
Now the problem is, it has been washed, but it has tiny black mould spots on the left side. Does anyone have any nifty tips to get this out? Thanking you all in advance


Squares knitted for my throw ~ 90 (yes!!! I have finally finished it :rotfl: )
Squares made for my patchwork quilt ~ 80 (only the "actual" quilting to do now :rotfl:)

it must be the warm weather cos the same thing happened to me this week. 3 white shirts and a nightie with coloured sleeves on it and a pair of white boxer shorts all with mildew on them I used a bleach solution - probably a capful in the wahing up bowl and left them to soak for a couple of hours.
1 of the shirts came out perfect but the other 2 came out yellow, no mildew but with a yellow tinge to them, they were that bad that i had to throw them away. The nightie which I thought would probably bleach the colour out came out perfect too as did the white boxers.0 -

Many thanks for the tip. My little one manage to let his milk leak all over a sheet, which I should have immediately rinsed but didn't and so mildew appeared. I was going to just chuck it out but you save me from doing that.
Once again, thank you!0
