  A solution of vinegar and baking soda.

  Spray or rub on and let stand for ... oh, about one hour.

  Voila!

  Repaint with a product called "Kilz" it works wonders. It is really the primary coat, so you'll need to do a second coat on top of it.

  Alternatively you can replace the baseboard. It's a great excuse to go out and buy a compound mitre saw.

  The home products work temporarily. Kilz lasts longer.

  We have tile instead of wooden baseboards and it never mildews.

  But then, this is Florida and tile is used everywhere here.

  Place WT magazines along the perimeter of the bathroom, facing the baseboards. Stand in the middle of the room and say aloud JEHOVAH several times as you circle, facing each wall for several seconds and then pray outloud for the mold demons to vacate the premises.

  If that fails, clean them with bleach and repaint using stain/mold resistant paint, like Kilz.

  If you try the first method, please videotape and post here...

  You are all wrong ...

  The correct JW answer is:

  Perhaps you're not doing enough in your ministry work. Put more hours in. Jehovah takes care of his own.

  I have never had a problem with a solution of bleach and water. For the small cracks you can't scrub easily I use an old tooth brush. An unwanted toothbrush is a very valuble tool sometimes, I always save a few in my tool box.
