what would happen if you sprayed a pretty strong concentration of baking soda on the gaskets and let it dry?
It sounds loony, but we have a mildewy bathroom and my husband and I have a competition going in terms of who can keep the mildew down. He is a bleach guy and my office is right next to the bathroom and I enjoy my respiratory ability. I read something saying that mold needs a specific pH to grow and if you can keep it skewed for long enough, you will discourage it. So far regular cleaning with baking soda (
spray, scrub and rinse, and then spray again as a preventative every so often) is winning. It costs next to nothing, can't hurt.
