Been filtering through a lot of old threads in this section, regarding mould.
The Man recently got out our three wheeled pram and extra seat. I had taken off one of the covers and newborn head surrounds before it was packed, and they are packed in a box, hopefully in the house. Somewhere. So their condition is unknown at the moment (even though I did wash them before packing). The rest of the pram, soft covers, extra seat, etc, have black mouldy spots on them.
I have dismantled what I can from the pram (which isn't really as much as I hoped to), and its soaking in the washing machine with napisan and oil of cloves. I've given it lots of agitation, etc, but the spots aren't coming off (as I suspected they probably wouldn't). I will probably clean the rest of the pram and bits with oil of cloves and hot water, and leave it in our scorching sun. And repeat a few times I guess.
Thoughts on using this pram again? I can't really afford to get a new pram for a newborn.
