 anyone know how to prevent further deposits or clean up mould/mildew which we have found on our concertina type roof vent blind!

This is our first winter with a caravan so we are relying on all you experts out there.

B&Q sell a product called "Mould and Mildew Remover" its a liquid that you rub on to remove mould and stop re-growth

I got a dettol one in Morrisons last weekend when we picked our caravan up from storage as it had a few mould spots particularly on the inside of the roof at the front end

Saved me scrubbing with some other stuff and whole van was clean in 3 hours.

Worked a treat and managed to sell our van next day

 It's a good idea to use the moisture catchers whilst you are not using the van, you can get from d.i.y. stores, we got ours from Wilko and they were only a couple of quid each, then you get the granuals to put in them. This will perhaps prevent more mould forming.

I left two of the moisture trays  in the van when we parked it up for the winter. 

We only had about 5 little black marks where wee one had left his teddies on the shelf.  I had forgotten to bring them back when I collected all the other stuff.
