Brilio.net - The damp condition of the refrigerator door rubber allows mold to grow in that area. Usually mold stains will make the refrigerator rubber appear blackish and dull. Blackening of the refrigerator rubber is a sign that it needs a deep cleaning to prevent the spread of mold and keep the refrigerator hygienic.
To overcome this, some people usually clean the refrigerator door rubber with toothpaste. Basically, toothpaste can remove stubborn stains on the refrigerator door rubber. However, instead of using toothpaste, you can use other ingredients, as did the Instagram account user @world_of_chetana.
Through one of the uploaded videos, he admitted that he only relied on simple ingredients in the kitchen. Reported by BrilioFood on Wednesday (5/6), the kitchen ingredients in question are baking soda and lemon juice. Apart from these two ingredients, he also relies on liquid detergent as a cleaner.
On the other hand, the Instagram user admitted that he did not use a brush to clean the refrigerator door rubber. He chose another tool that was more effective in reaching between the thin rubber. In the same video, he admits to using socks and a comb.

To use it, just prepare a bowl first. Then pour in the water and baking soda, detergent and lemon juice. Stir all these ingredients until evenly mixed.
Next, dip the socks into the liquid. Or you can also replace it with another used cloth. Then squeeze a little and take the comb that was prepared previously. So, put the comb into the sock. Then bend or close the ends.

In one swipe, the mold stain on the refrigerator door rubber will immediately lift and stick to your socks. Do this process gradually, occasionally dipping the socks into the cleaning fluid. Then squeeze it and use it again to rub each side of the rubber refrigerator door.
Next, you can wipe the refrigerator door rubber with a dry cloth. Make sure the rubber is completely dry before closing the refrigerator door. That way, you can minimize the growth of mold on the refrigerator door rubber.
