Keeping your urban outdoor furniture cushions free from mold and mildew requires a proactive approach. The key is managing moisture, which is the primary cause of fungal growth. First, invest in high-quality, mildew-resistant cushions designed for outdoor use. When not in use, especially overnight or during rain, make it a habit to store cushions in a dry, well-ventilated area. Using waterproof and breathable cushion covers provides an excellent protective barrier against unexpected weather. For regular maintenance, clean your cushions every few weeks with a solution of mild soap and warm water, scrubbing gently. Always allow cushions to dry completely in the sun before putting them back on furniture. For deeper cleaning or existing mild mildew, a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water can be effective. Apply it, let it sit, then scrub and rinse thoroughly. For winter or long-term storage, ensure cushions are perfectly dry and place them in a cool, dry location off the floor. By combining consistent cleaning, proper coverage, and smart storage, you can significantly extend the life and appearance of your outdoor cushions.
