How to remove mildew stains from eucalyptus outdoor bar stools?

Mildew stains on eucalyptus outdoor bar stools can be unsightly and difficult to remove if not treated properly. Here’s a step-by-step guide to restoring your furniture:

1. Prepare a Cleaning Solution: Mix equal parts water and white vinegar or use a mild soap solution. For tougher stains, add a small amount of bleach (test on a hidden area first).

2. Scrub the Stains: Use a soft brush or sponge to gently scrub the mildew spots. Avoid harsh scrubbing to prevent damaging the wood.

3. Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse the stools with clean water to remove any residue.

4. Dry Completely: Let the stools air-dry in the sun, as sunlight helps kill remaining mildew spores.

5. Prevent Future Growth: Apply a protective sealant or oil designed for eucalyptus wood to repel moisture and mildew.

Regular cleaning and proper maintenance will keep your eucalyptus bar stools looking fresh and mildew-free for years.
