In a bowl, mix the white vinegar, baking soda, warm water, and a few drops of dish soap. Stir gently until the baking soda dissolves.
Apply the Solution:
Dip the toothbrush into the solution and gently scrub the gasket, focusing on moldy areas. Pay special attention to folds and crevices where mold tends to hide.
Wipe Clean:
After scrubbing, use a damp microfiber cloth to wipe away loosened mold and cleaning residue.
Dry Thoroughly:
Using a dry microfiber cloth, dry the gasket completely. Moisture left behind can encourage more mold growth.
Optional Disinfectant Step:
For extra protection, you can lightly spray the gasket with pure white vinegar and let it air-dry. Vinegar naturally kills mold spores.
