Beat the moisture in a humid Iowa summer
Mrs Sally Whetstine extension home economist offers tips to reduce indoor humidity. Run kitchen exhaust after meals and vent the clothes dryer outside. Keep basement doors closed in the day, repair walls, pile dirt to shed rain, and use a basement dehumidifier May through September. Use fans to circulate air and leave drawers and closets slightly open. Hang clothes loosely to improve air flow.
