Hi wired
Welcome to UKCS read this advice and follow it, you will be fine. You can use a diluted solution of Milton to kill the mold 12 water to 1 Milton I think but will be quickly corrected if I am wrong or you can use the Hydrogen Peroxide as suggested Go to HERE
All the best
Rex.

HI, we used Dettox mould and mildew remover and sponged it off with  clean water once it had done its job.

Hope thats useful

Is the mould on a cotton canvas flysheet, the inners or synthetic canvas? The cleaning method you use will depend on this.

I would like to know how to remove it from the inners please. I was planning on getting some Milton, however is this going to be difficult to wash out when there is a gs attached?

Hard work. Small inners can go in the washing machine but for a big inner with SIG, it's often easier to pitch the inner then rinse out any treatment with a hose. Failing that, some folk have sucessfully washed large sections of tent in a cheap paddling pool...you wear shorts and do the grape-treading bit, lol.
