To remove mildew from outdoor furniture cushions, start by taking them outside on a sunny, dry day. Brush off loose spores with a stiff brush. Create a cleaning solution using equal parts white vinegar and water, or one cup of bleach mixed with a gallon of water (test for colorfastness first). Apply the solution generously to the affected fabric. For tougher stains, make a paste using baking soda and water or lemon juice and salt, and scrub it into the mildew spots. Let the cleaner sit for 15-30 minutes. Scrub thoroughly with a brush, then rinse the cushions completely with a hose. Allow them to air dry completely in direct sunlight, which helps kill remaining spores. To prevent future mildew, store cushions in a dry place when not in use, use waterproof covers, and clean them regularly. For persistent mildew or delicate fabrics, consider using a commercial mold remover or consulting a professional cleaning service.
