Does Tilex work well for mold and mildew, and what should I know about the smell?

Tilex works great — mold and mildew don’t stand a chance — but the bleach smell is aggressive and lingers for hours. You need real ventilation: open the door, turn on the fan, and maybe open a second window. A cracked window won’t cut it, so plan around not needing the bathroom for an hour or two.
