The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency states in their recent Energy Star article

Mold, Mildew, or Musty Odors

"Diagnosis: A water leak or high humidity can lead to mold, mildew, or other biological growth. Depending on the severity, conditions can lead to rot, structural damage, premature paint failure, and a variety of health problems. Water can seep into your house from the outside through a leak in your roof, foundation, or small gaps around windows or doors. Water can also come from inside your house from a leaking water pipe, toilet, shower or bathtub. High indoor humidity caused by normal activities of everyday living such as showering cooking, and drying clothes, can also be a source of mold, mildew, or musty odors. Indoor humidity levels between 30% and 50% are ideal. For more information consult EPA's Brief Guide to Mold in your home."

Protect your valuable camping equipment by reducing the places water and moisture seep into your RV, travel trailer or pop up camper. Over time water and moisture causing mold and rot will damage the structure creating costly repairs. It's a good idea to use the following camping comfort tips before each travel season. There is nothing worse than finding the cause of the problem after you've had to replace the floor boards and the carpet. Trust me, I've had personal experience on this one! Reducing the places moisture collects keeps your camper from smelling damp and add comfort to your travels.
