Cleaning Green Mildew From Your Boat's Deck Carpets

Q: How do I clean the green mildew that has formed around the edges of my deck carpeting in the cockpit?

A: If you see green mildew forming around the edges of the deck carpet in your cockpit, simply spray with a mildew spray, work in with a light bristle brush and pat dry with a rag. You may want to pull the carpet up during the wet months and put back again in the spring. You can find mildew cleaner spray at either your local boat supply store or in the cleaning aisle of your grocery or home improvement store.
