I have a rental property with vinyl siding. The siding is white and
is about 5 years old.
There is a light brown stain forming near the the outside light
fixture. Not sure what is causing it.

Any ideas on how to remove this stain and prevent it in the future?
I've tried Ajax with no success.

Thanks,

In this same vein, I recently had my house power washed, and the
siding on the porch retained a distinct yellowish cast. It had
obviously been a LONG time since the siding was washed (if ever), and
the siding on the porch never even gets rained on. Any suggestions
for how to whiten this siding?

Near the bulb or below the fixture?

The stain is all around the fixture, even above where the fixture
would cast light.
The bulb is a low-wattage fluorescent bulb.

Bugs, maybe? Have you had it on at night?
