Algae growth in window track

[Tim]

Hi Guys. We have green stuff growing in our GB42 sliding window tracks and can’t seem to defeat it. Has anyone come up with a toxin that would solve the problem?
Thank you

Greetings,
Cleaning vinegar-10% should do it (apply liberally and let sit). Light scrubbing and rinse after a couple of days OR move to Florida....

Thank you. Will give it a try.

I get similar stuff growing on the fuzzy seals of my sliding side windows (in aluminum tracks). I've just treated it as an every few months chore to give it a light scrub to dislodge the stuff and allow it to rinse away.

Maybe Soft Scrub. It has some Clorox in it I think that may kill the mildew.
