Hi Alastair,

Umm, I use water from a spray bottle to wash off the mold. But I
have never seen mold on the leaves themselves and would think the humidity
is too high, or that the air is not moving enough... When it does show
up, it forms mostly on the peristome in the nectar or where the nectar
has dripped.
