Another option is to wash your curtain whenever you do your laundry or more regularly if need be. The trick is adding a cup of vinegar and bleaching agent to your normal detergent. Throw in some white towels and load the machine to its usually capacity, if it still does not fill to capacity.
Do not use hot water to wash the curtain as it might melt or possibly shrink in size. When you are drying do not throw it in the drier instead hang it out in the sun to dry.
Another idea that you can try is soaking the curtain in salt water or a mixture of salt water and vinegar after washing it and then put it back on the rod to dry from there. The salt water and the vinegar will prevent the formation of mildew and moulds.
