Be very careful with bleach. I own a cleaning company and bleach can actually damage grout not to mention your lungs and skin. One of the best ways to clean grout is a paste of baking soda and castile soap. put it on, scrub it in with a toothbrush and let it sit. give it time to work, even hours. Then come back with some more and scrub with a grout brush. rinse with hydrogen peroxide (non-cholorine bleach) and then spray with white vinegar. The peroxide, followed by vinegar is a potent disinfectant. When you are all done, spray liberally with a mixture of tea tree oil (about 10-15 drops) in a squirt bottle of water. Tea tree inhibits the mold and mildew growth.
