I've used all sorts over the years, but I've found something that appears to sort it properly: Polycell 3in1 Mould Killer. I got it from Homebargains before Christmas. I think I've seen it as a spray, but I have a litre bottle of it which you apply with a paintbrush. You need to wear gloves and eye protection, personally I also wear a mask or at least cover my mouth just in case. 6 months on from doing a particularly bad area of the kitchen ceiling and still no regrowth:j The bit on my frog list is above the cabinets and around the window which are hard to get to, but they'll get done soon, when I decorate my kitchen

Depends how often you will wash and how quick to dry. I would do a wash everyday and dry in tumble so 10 would be plenty....I'm not having anymore babies thoughHave a Bsc Hons open degree from the Open University 2015 :j:D:eek::T0
