So, Mike.  I live in the south -- where heat and moisture are common, 
especially in the summer.  At least a couple times every summer, I find a mold 
patch or two on my shower curtain, where it folds together when the shower is 
not in use.  I keep a spray bottle of bleach right in the shower area so I can 
spray these as soon as I spot them, then I rinse the area with clean water as 
soon as the mold disappears from the shower curtain.  The shower curtain, 
incidentally, is vinyl.  Are you saying that I when I do this, I haven't killed 
the mold?  That the spores remain alive?  If so, then where are they?

  You mean  bleach, or sodium hypochlorite (NaClO)? Yes, it  will kill
  the live plant, but not the spores. I use it daily. It destroys your
  clothes, but I have found no alternative.
