I use Borax and find it helpful. My water supply doesn't have chlorine in it. The boron reduces problems with mildew. It also allegedly softens the water, but I use baking soda as my primary water softener.
I also have successfully used Borax solution in cleaning of porous surfaces to eradicate mildew problems in areas that bleach doesn't work to eliminate long term.
