Because it will ruin the rubber seal. So why is everyone saying to use it here? Larry Posted on 06/22/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Mold and Mildew Inside of Refrigerator By Dean (Guest Post) Make a mixture of bleach and water and spray it on the mold or pat the mixture on with a rag. The mold will dissolve in a short time then rinse with water and dry. Wear some eye protection and gloves.

Posted on 01/22/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Mold and Mildew Inside of Refrigerator By crazybest (17) Contact All you have to do is put a metal bowl inside with boiling water {be careful not to spill it. If you could put some lemon juice that will help. Let it sit {unplugged} for 1/2 an hour w/ door closed. It will "steam" the inside of the freezer. Now what you do is buy {cheap} paste toothpaste w/whitner. This has bleach in it, use a nail brush or old toothbrush, and work the moldy area's. You can also use this on the rubber seal around the doors {only if white}. After you have washed with the above, make sure you rinse it with some nice warm cloths. Now if you have a smell which is possible, cut two lemons in quarters, and place in a bowl for atleast a day before turning the freezer on. This can be used either on or off for the fridge. Also if you use freshly ground coffee, place in a cloth napkin and tie a ribbon around it. This also helps take care of odors. Best of Luck.

Rinse with baking soda and water and leave a box of soda in the frig. Clean thoroughly the sealant around the door getting under it if possible. A spray bottle of degreaser or bleach may help to loosen it free from the seal if it's caked on.

Clean it out with some diluted bleach and warm water. Posted on 01/22/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse
