Just wondering if anybody had any ideas on how to get mold off of my bamboo & cloth rug. I rolled it up and set it outside for a week. It rained and I forgot to take it in or roll it out to dry. Now it has mold all around the edges. Thanks for the help.

What can I do next?

Bleach is great on mold. Vinegar or oxiclean is worth a try if the bleach will take the color out.

Mold is tricky...and just a little bit can cause a myriad of upper respiratory problems. I'd toss it and buy a new one...sorry!

Hi L.! Bummer on the rug...how bad is it? If the mold hasn't gotten into the bamboo I would use two of my favorite products. Are non chlorine based, green cleaners an important priority for you?

Vinager kills mold--then use bleach after the vinager!
