I owned a home in Florida for almost 20 years. I just would not do what you are thinking unless you could get it into air conditioned storage. If you set that thing in the sun for 6-8 months all closed up, I guarantee you will be growing your own penicillin somewhere !
Mold and mildew is a BIG problem in Florida. Homeowners sometimes open an unused closet to find mold/mildew stains on the ceiling. You gotta use bleach and a high pressure sprayer periodically on driveways and sidewalks. Need to spray homes and especially roofs with anti-mildew chemicals. The sun seems more 'harsh' down here. Add in high temps, high humidity and rain every day in the summer and you have the perfect environment for mold and mildew.
Did I mention I really like Florida ?
