  • Make sure to dry hard surfaces thoroughly after cleaning them
  • If absorbent materials have mold (think carpets and fabrics), you should replace them
  • Fix leaky plumbing
  • Keep drip pans in the air conditioner, fridge and dehumidifier clean
  • Use the exhaust fans in your bathroom and kitchen when showering, cooking or using the dishwasher
  • Vent your dryer outside
