    Right, here goes. Hopefully very soon we will be handing in our notice to our landlady. We've been here for two years and I must say she's by far the best landlady we've ever had. I'd like to think we've been good tenants too and have probably made the house nicer since we moved in. Plus, as a clean freak, it has always been spotless.
    However, the house doesn't have any vents in the walls. It instead has tiny ones built it to the windows which are useless. As a result there's mildew round the window frames, on the sills and on some of the blinds. We've tried washing it but it doesn't come off 100%. Anyway, does anyone know if this could effect us getting our deposit back? I'm all on for opening the windows and airing out the house in the summer but not when it's freezing cold outside! Thanks in advance guys.

    Get something like Dettol Mould and Mildew remover. Works for us.

    Yup, they are permanently open, 24/7.
