Removal of mildew and mould

Mold is a fungus that grows on organic matter, usually in damp and dark conditions. The spores can create an unpleasant musty odor and be difficult to remove. If the mould isn't removed it will continue to grow and spread. It is important to regularly clean the area. The first step is to eliminate any loose debris and dirt from the fabric surface. This can be done either by hand or using an air-tight vacuum cleaner that has a flexible nozzle. This is a great time to clean pockets, compartments and other small areas that are difficult to reach.

Then, clean the entire surface with a clean cloth or a scrub brush. This should be done outdoors in a well-ventilated area, and with a mask on to avoid breathing in mould or spores. After cleaning the fabric you can spray it with a mildew-removal or a dilute solution of white vinegar. Vinegar is a natural disinfectant that does not harm the fabric or other materials in your pushchair, is an excellent alternative. If you aren't able to remove the mould from the surface of the fabric, it may be necessary to dry and scrub the area with a dehumidifier.

After the fabric has been cleaned, it is best to let it dry completely before storing it. Place the fabric in a sunny area and spray it with anti-fungal spray. Milton makes a child-friendly version.

Cleaning

A car seat or pushchair can be quite a dirty item to clean, particularly when it's been used for outdoor trips and has dragged along food crumbs, mud and other sand. To begin, vacuum out any loose dirt using a crevice tool or use a brush. Spray on Clorox Free and Clean Multi-Surface spray cleaner or a similar product, then apply a soft cloth apply the product to any fabric sections like the seat, basket or the hood.

If you want to tackle any marks or stains you've got, take to look over the instructions for cleaning to determine if they can be machine washed. Otherwise, a bucket filled with hot soapy water and gentle baby pram-friendly soap should be sufficient, or you could use a damp sponge to scrub off any stubborn marks and then let them dry in the sun (which will also help lighten the stains).

If you own an inflatable pushchair that has removable fabric parts, such as seats or hoods be sure to wash and dry them thoroughly.

The chassis or frame of your pushchair might require some extra attention than the fabric parts. If you notice mould spores on the plastic, you should be quick to stop the mould spores from spreading to your child as they sleep. This can be done with the use of vinegar and water, which breaks down bacteria and is then washed off. An old toothbrush is an excellent tool for getting into difficult-to-access or sensitive areas.

If you're dealing with stains that are difficult to remove, add a bit of bicarbonate soda to wash or apply baking soda to remove the stain. This will not only neutralize the smell, but also lift stains that a first wash might have missed.

Stores

A quality pushchair must have ample interior and exterior storage space to accommodate all the essentials like drinks, snacks and toys. The main compartment of the pushchair must be large enough to fit a laptop or tablet. There should also be a smaller side compartment for smaller items such as phones, keys, or other baby items. Some pushchairs also have a hidden storage under the seat which can be useful to keep those items from view when the baby is asleep.

A prams travel system system bundle is a fantastic option for new parents as it lets you purchase a car seat and stroller together in one purchase. The most effective travel systems come with adaptors that allow the car seat and stroller to be attached to one another. This makes it easier to move a child who is sleeping from the car into the stroller.

This is a major advantage over combinations that require a strap attachment in the second step, which could lead to errors. In reality, those combinations that use straps scored lower on our ease of use ratings.

Some pushchairs also come with a footmuff which is ideal for winter. However, it is important to make sure that the footmuff is compatible with a car seat. Also, ensure that it comes with a hood that will protect your child from weather.
