        Yep, bleach kills mold. Dilute it and don't do it too often because bleach is drying and if you over do it , it may cause the rubber to crack.

          The above answers are spot on, I will thumbs up you guys in a sec, after removing the mould with bleach on a cloth allow the rubber to dry completely. Then spray with silicone spray to help to prevent regrowth.If you don`t have silicone smear vaseline (petroleum jelly) on the surface of the seals then remove excess.
