Getting Rid Of Mold In Birdbath

I have an old stone birdbath that has mold on the inside. Any clues as to removing it? I don't want to replace it.

Thanks to all, I cleaned it but good. Water has never looked so good, I imagine the birds will like it also.

I have had the same problem, but did not want to put bleach in it for fear of residue which the birds might drink. I just got out a scrub brush and some baking soda and used a bit of elbow grease. Worked like a charm and it's safer for the environment. : )

Bleach is the best. To rinse it I would put the hose in it, weighed down with a brick, and let it run for five minutes.

A little bleach and a scrub brush should do the trick. Once its clean, use bleach about once a month to keep it clean. Make sure to rinse it well before filling it for the birds.

I agree with lsfm, bleach is what I would use.
