Any suggestions on how we can stop black mould in the fridge over the winter months.
I always make sure the freezer and fridge is clean and dry. I leave the fridge door open, but still manage to get black in the door rubbers etc.

Thanks

We clean our fridge out with dettox spray and have no problems on the rubber.

Thanks Mal, if you see my post I say I leave the door open. I have spoken to a couple of friends and they say they have the same problem.

I use neat bleach on a slightly damp cloth, wipe all around the seals & let them air dry.

We do the same at home too, and never had a problem

Dettox spray on a soft brush to get into the rubber door folds, tooth brush, nail brush or something like it.
