Prepare Cleaning Solution: Mix equal parts white vinegar and water, or use hydrogen peroxide directly. For tough spots, sprinkle baking soda on the cloth.
Apply to Gasket: Dip a cloth or sponge in the solution and wipe the gasket thoroughly.
Scrub Crevices: Use an old toothbrush to get into folds and corners where mold hides.
Rinse & Dry: Wipe with a clean damp cloth, then dry completely to prevent mold from returning.
Repeat if Needed: For severe mold, repeat the process until fully clean.
Tips for Prevention
Wipe gaskets weekly with a damp cloth to prevent mold growth.
Keep the fridge door closed to maintain consistent temperature and reduce moisture.
Ensure food is covered and spills are cleaned promptly.
With this simple routine, your refrigerator gasket will look and smell fresh, and you’ll prevent black mold from returning.
