Great tips- I use bleach now-- and I hate to. I am going to whip up the baking soda one the next time- I get mold on the windows from time to time in the closest.

I get mold in the bathroom sometimes, and I use Clorox Cleanup. It's got a lot of bleach in it which kills the mold, but the fumes are toxic. I'm going to use healthier methods from now on.
