Not sure if this actually works, but ehwn i was little we had a static caravan and over the winter when it was empty my mum put ice cream containers full of salt in all the rooms. Apparently it absorbs moisture.....

Hi,
This is what i do (salt) buy the 13p a box from lidl (usually buy about 6 boxes)and put in empty butter containers all over the van, near windows, the condensation u get from having no heating on is absorbed in the salt.
I never have a smell in mine, but then i am only out for 5 weeks.

Hi

A cut lemon on a plate in cupboards and an open tub of salt should do the trick if you don't want to go to the pound shop and buy boxes of crystals that absorb moisture.
