Black mold inside Misto oil sprayer collar

Question

There is some black mold I can see inside my sealed Misto internal clear plastic air collar that is just below the sprayer and around the sprayer tube when the sprayer mechanism is unscrewed.  I cannot find an obvious way to get into that apparently sealed plastic collar to clean the mold out.  Does anyone know how to disassemble the round donut shaped clear plastic collar?

I'm not sure if you can take that piece off, from what I can remember. But perhaps you could run some diluted bleach solution through it to get rid of the mold. Hopefully this will dislodge it and disinfect the area as well.

I'm not sure how you can take it apart, but to avoid future mould contamination, keep it in the refrigerator where mould cannot form.
