The nursery rhyme Ring around the Rosie came about during the time of the Black Death. Here are what the lyrics mean: Ring around the rosie is a reference to the black sores that would appear on your body as part of the plague. Your rosie is around the center of the back of your hand.
1 Use a scrub brush to brush along the surface of the caulking, moving from side to side. 2  Apply light pressure or it may damage the caulking. 3  Rinse completely with water and/or scrub the surface again with the soapy water used earlier to remove any bleach residue.4  Dry the caulking with a soft towel. 5  Repeat if necessary.teps to Remove the Mold: 1  Fill a bucket with warm water. 2  Add a small amount of soap and mix until suds begin to form. 3  Wash all of the caulking with the soapy water and a soft cloth. 4  Fill a spray bottle with undiluted bleach.
If the curtains are machine-washable, wash them as directed on the care tag, but add a cup of baking soda and a scoop or two of Oxi Clean. The baking soda will kill the mold and mildew and the Oxi Clean will get rid of any stains from the mold and mildew. Hang to air dry or better yet....iron lightly straight from the dryer. Then hang damp. If the curtains are not machine-washable, take them to a dry cleaner. I'm sure a dry cleaner can remove the mold and mildew, and I'm also sure that they will charge you less than your Landlady would. Good luck.
