Mildew

WE have a Sunnybrook Travel Trailer that sits under a 30' x 40' Awning in the North Georgia Mountains. This year we have had an excessive amount of rain, like most others, but this year we have actually had a mildew problem on the inside of the TT that faces north. This is not a joke, no where else except around the inside of the cabinets on that side of the camper. We have now whipped everything down with Lynsed Oil to protect the wood and have also invested in an Air Dryr 1000. Has anyone had any success in this area?

Mildew or mold? I'm not sure what the differnce is but both require moisture to grow and survive. So controling moisture would be important. Kill it, clean it, get the moisture under control. Google mold and mildew control see what ya get.

Air circulation also helps. Leave windows cracked when away, and if possible, a small fan running in the RV. Still damp air encourages the growth of molds and mildews.
