Well you should use bleach first to kill it. Second if the bleach does not take it off use some heave duty degreaser with a small brush, some times you may have to bring in the big guns like using some CLR which is calcium, lime and rust remover. Once you get it off you shoud go over the whole thing with some windex because those other chemicals will leave a dull film on the tile. You should use gloves with the clr or it will mess your hands up bad.

I use muratic acid. My husband is a plumber so he uses it. I used to take a toothbrush to thoses spaces in my bathroom - now Pour the acid (be careful) in the toilet bowl, pour some on the ground and closes the door. Leave it for 15 - 30 minutes and you will have a clean, mildew and mold free bathroom!

Open the windows get plenty of air circulating and use bleach and a scrub brush. There are plenty of commercial mildew and mold removers on the market-they smell better than bleach. After you've scrubbed and rinsed you might want to use a mildew remover/bathroom cleaner spray every three days to keep it from coming back-it's hard to kill!

Use bleach with a spray bottle to saturate the grout completely. If needed, use an old tooth brush to get it really clean.
You can also use "Tilex" cleaner which contains bleach as well as a cleaning substance.

old toothbrush, bleech or flash. Soak the area first liberally with the bleech of flash, or cif..or something similar, leave for a few minutes, then get your toothbrush and rub over the dirty area. Should leave it spotless. Add a little vinegar to the mixture too..that always helps remove stubborn stains.

a mixture of vinegar and bicarbonate of soda (baking soda).
It will fizz up so leave to soak on the mould and wait for the fizzing to stop, then scrub off using a cloth or something.

Scrub it with a bit of neat bleach on an old toothbrush, leave for an hour then rinse thoroughly.
