What causes black mould on washing machine door seals?
In many cases, mould on washing machine door seal is transferred to clothes and causes skin rashes and irritations. Mould/mildew build ups can also be caused when dirty, stagnant water from the sink drains enter your washing machine. This waste water can contain all sorts of organic waste, debris, and food residue
