Mildew and food particles tend to settle in the bottom of the silverware holder attached to my plastic dish drainer. Just adding a few drops of bleach directly to the bottom of the silverware container after cleaning it has prevented ant brown mildew build-up.

This one is simple and effective. I clean my bathroom by adding a small amount of bleach and dish detergent to a bucket of warm water. I sprinkle baking soda on surfaces and wipe them down with the solution in the bucket. My tip is this: I dunk the hem of the plastic shower curtain liner into the bucket before starting. The solution settles into the heam and prevents mildew. I also do the same with the plastic window curtain which is inside the tub enclosure.

Purchase turtle car wax paste and coat your bathtub/shower walls and doors. You will find cleaning up easier. Do this once every two to three months and soapscum, mold and mildew will not be able to build up.

black spots on wood furniture can indicate mildew. don't just varnish over it, treat it with bleach first and then re-apply the finish

Try using citric acid to clean mold and mildew off of your bathroom tiles. Much more environmentally friendly than bleach

Clean shower curtains by washing them in your washing machine on a gentle cycle. It will clean soap scum as well as mildew. When washing is complete, just hang the shower curtain back on the rod to air dry.
