Arse!

Thought it was packed away dry and clean last te used, but it was a frosty morning so guess I failed!

Anyway, before I start hunting for new, has anyone managed to treat mould and mould pours on a tent?

Thought I would ask here as there are a few campers on here 😉

It's a Vango family tent btw.

Just wash it off if it's not to bad, it'll be grand.

What's best to wash it down with?

I don't fancy spreading mould pours about if I can help it? 😉

if your bothered by the spores then pop a dust mask on and do it outside with warm water. There is also some anti fungal sprays and washes around. Just wash it and dry it.

Stick it up in the garden/back yard/wherever, spray it with mould spray stuff, leave in the sun for a few hours. Then stick it in the washing machine if it's a small one, or sponge it down with some bathroom cleaner spray or similar, and leave to dry. Make sure it's absolutely bone dry before you pack it away again though. And clean any storage bags/sacks.
