Removal of mildew and mold

Mold is a fungus that grows on organic matter, usually in damp and dark conditions. Mold can give off an unpleasant musty odor and can be difficult to get rid of. If the mould is not removed, it can continue to expand and grow. To prevent this, it is important to regularly clean the area. First, remove any loose dirt and debris from the fabric surface. This can be done manually or by using the vacuum cleaner that has a flexible nozzle attachment. It is also a good idea to use this time to clean any pockets, compartments, or other small areas of the fabric that aren't accessible easily.

The next step is to clean the entire surface of the pushchair using a clean cloth or a scrubbing brush.
