Does anyone know of anything I can do to keep this from happening? Anything to wash with to keep this from happening? Keep in mind I have a cat and dog that go out there so I have to be careful with chemicals.

I get black mold around the ring on inside of the hot tub and on the inside top of my hot tub cover. I occasionally spray it with a little bleach to rid myself of the black mold. The mold just fades away. I also spray the inside top of the hot tub cover with some diluted bleach water to prevent mold from coming. I repeat this process a few times a year.
