Mrs Hinch fans share the best ways they banish grim mould from their tile grout in minutes, including a 5p trick
FANS of the cleaning sensation Mrs Hinch have shared their top remedies for getting rid of nasty mould from their bathrooms.
Known to thrive in damp conditions, mould is a common issue in millions of bathrooms and kitchens around the world - and social media user Lynn Smith was desperate to banish this fungi.
Looking for different hacks, Lynn took to Facebook to seek help from fellow fans of Mrs Hinch, also known as Sophie Hinchliffe.
''Can anyone advise any cleaning advice to remove the grout stains on my bathroom window and the seal on the edge of my bath?'' she wondered.
Fortunately for Lynn - and anyone else dealing with this issue - the post was soon inundated with responses.
Whilst there were a number of methods suggested, for the most part cleaning fans advised to use HG mould spray that you can nab for £5.50 at Tesco and Amazon.
Faye Doyle said: “I’d try HG mould spray on it.”
Carlyne McHugh penned: “HG Mould Spray Remover. Open the window, spray, wait 30 minutes and rinse, walk away.
“It’s really as difficult as that! It works on all mould and staining everywhere except unpainted wood. Original and best.”
Other recommendations included using bleach and cotton wool, Cillit Bang, Viakal and Dettol.
