Absolutely! Clorox can clean any mold and mildew on any surface that cannot be harmed. Clorox can also rid a house of black mold, eventhough the EPA would rather make you pay for 10 guys in micro suits and respirators. Put Clorox in a spray yard jug and go to town. By the way, for this, a respirator and goggles are a good idea. Great Answer !! I am Chris of Apple Roof Cleaning Tampa, and just wanted to add this. "Standard Clorox will not clean a roof very fast, if at all. Roofs needing cleaning here in the Tampa area are very infected with a type of Black Algae. We commonly see Roof Algae almost an inch thick on roofs we clean here in Tampa. This Black Roof Algae we see in Tampa will laugh at Clorox. It can easily take 100 gallons of Clorox to even put a dent in this Roof Mold and Mildew. Tampa has all kinds of deed restricted subdivisions. Roof Cleaning is not an option for many of our customers.' We see many customers attempt to clean a roof. They usually wind up calling a professional non pressure roof cleaning company. After they have risked their lives, and spent considerable money and time, in a futile effort to clean their roof with Clorox. Now, IF you insist, Outdoor Clorox is much better to use. You can get it at Home Depot or Lowes. On VERY light, still green mildew, enough of it will work. But once the Mildew turns black, and gets thick, you can easily use 100 gallons or more, and still not have a clean roof!"
