Answer 2

You simply throw it in the trash.  If this "black mold" is truely S. chartarum, or toxic black mold, it can be fatal, esp. to infants as well as the elderly.  If you really want to chance cleaning the crib, try two ounces of bleach to one gallon of cold water.  Treat the infected area with a moistened paper towel or sponge (disposable), and allow to dry. Repeat two more times.  A lot of times the stained area will remain even after treating the area, sanding or other means of removing the spot will just spread the mold spores around.
