Mildew growth on your shower curtain is mainly caused by moisture that remains after you shower or bathe. Although many people may discard their shower curtain and replace it with a fresh, new curtain or liner, there are preventative steps you can take on a regular basis to stop mildew growth before it occurs.
Use a shower curtain or liner with a smooth, consistent surface. Shower curtains with raised or etched patterns may allow moisture or water to collect in certain areas; whereas a smooth curtain will allow water to glide down into the drain.
Ventilate your bathroom during and after your shower. This procedure will help your bathroom dry at a faster rate and help eliminate moisture buildup.
Open the window in your bathroom or turn on the ventilator fan to help remove excess moisture.
Open your shower curtain wide enough for air circulation. Once you get out of the shower, leave the curtain partially open. This will allow any trapped moisture on the wet side of the shower curtain to escape and dry faster.
Shake out the liner and separate any folds in your shower curtain to release trapped moisture.
Also consider putting an empty laundry basket or a hook in the tub to hold the wet shower curtain away from the tub side.
Hang the shower curtain on the outside of your bathtub. This will prevent mildew from forming on the area that clings to the tub.
Move the shower curtain to the outside of the bathtub only after it has dried partially to prevent water from dripping onto your bathroom floor.
Dry your shower curtain after each use. This will help prevent soap scum from forming on your shower curtain in addition to mildew.
Use a dry towel or rag to remove water from the wet side of your shower curtain after you shower.
