Removing Mildew from Curtains

I need to know the best possible way in which I can remove mildew off curtains, with linings? I tried ammonia, but that did not work.

Well, what kills mold is bleach, but that may alter the color of the fabric so I would wash the drapes or curtains and hang them out to dry. I would then try and locate the source of why the drapes are getting mold and eliminate that source. (01/22/2009)

Bicarbonate of soda is excellent for removing mildew. In fact, I use bicarb for most of my cleaning. Just mix equal amount with water and presto!
