Black Mold In Washing Machine Drawer. It is caused by having conditions where the airborne spores can survive and thrive. This mold can sometimes block the detegent or fabric softener from entering the washer.
The black mold can also be present in the dispenser housing area. Check the detergent drawer for moisture. Apparently it happens because we tend to wash at lower temperatures these days.

I take my drawer out regularly and wash it flush through the soft rinse bit and wipe out the bit the drawer goes in. I pulled the drawer out and gave it a really good scrub. This kind of mold is caused by neglecting to clean the machine andor using it improperly. Check the detergent drawer for moisture.
