Mold and mildew are basically two words for the same thing, and cleaning them from the side of a house is usually easy with a power washer. That technique is problematic when cleaning vinyl siding, though, because a pressure washer can force water under the siding.
A solution of vinegar and water safely kills mold. That doesn't mean you can't use a pressure washer, but you have to keep the pressure low, so you should scrub the siding with a solvent first.
