I hate the musty smell after days of rain. My house smells like the middle of the forest in monsoon season.

Smell really musty. It is nearly winter time here. Pretty wet and cold so I can sit it out side.

We’ve been dealing with a musty smell in our cottage/mobile home with great success! Do you have a dehumidifier? That will make the biggest difference. Also try running any exhaust fans that take moist air outside. And as crazy as it sounds - kitty litter can absorb moisture and odours in the air. :)
There is a product out there called Damp Rid. I know it helps with situations like this. It maybe could help. It’s not expensive either :) You can buy it at Walmart for a really good price. Hope this helps. 🌸 M
Running your A.C. in addition to the dehumidifier being set to no more than 40% should work. If you have a ceiling fan, set it to operate counter clockwise, and use it simultaneously with A.C.
Give it at least 3-4 days if the musty smell is bad. Keep an eye on the humidity in the house. Anything over 50% invites dust mites, mold, mildew.
