Wooden outdoor furniture adds natural beauty to your space but is vulnerable to mold and mildew growth due to moisture, shade, and organic debris. To protect it, start by cleaning regularly with a solution of mild soap and water, or use a mixture of vinegar and water for a natural approach. Scrub gently with a soft brush to remove dirt and spores. Ensure the furniture dries completely after rain or cleaning to prevent moisture buildup. Applying a protective sealant or wood preservative annually can create a barrier against water and fungi. For existing mold, use a specialized wood cleaner or a diluted bleach solution, but test it on a small area first to avoid damage. Store furniture in a dry, covered area during harsh weather, or use waterproof covers. Additionally, keep the furniture in sunny spots when possible, as sunlight inhibits mold growth. Regular maintenance not only prevents mold and mildew but also extends the life of your wooden pieces, keeping them attractive and durable for years.
