Using lemon juice and either a toothbrush or a nail brush, you can loosen up the mildew pores on clothing. Once you have given them a good scrub you will need to place them outdoors. The sun will kill of the majority of the mildew. Should you still see parts of the stain then you will need to repeat the process. Once all of the mildew stain has been removed you can machine was and dry the clothes as you normally would.
