Here’s a great post written with several possibilities in answer to your question:
ROOT + REVEL: How to Get Rid of Black Mold Naturally (Without Bleach).
Try hydrogen peroxide and a hard old tooth brush. Wait a while then use bon ammi . Wait another day and use white vinegar and baking soda and don’t forget your mask and gloves and throw out all the utensils you used or clean them outside and leave in sun, Wipe your windows dry with paper if there is moiiture on them before mold grows and check a simple $55 dollar dehumidifier from amazon to keep the area dry warm enough to avoid mold .
You can even fill a old pillow case with zeolite like a sausage with sweet pdz and roll it up under the window sill inside . It absorbs moisture. Get a fan for the room
Food grade H2O2. (35%) Wear gloves as it will burn skin, but even if it does the burn which is white will resolve in a half hour or so. This stuff KILLS mold on contact and takes away the awful color so it looks like new.
I put a sprayer in a peroxide bottle and use it each time. Seems to keep everything at bay.
Thank you Debra!
