storing the MH in winter

[anon125]

we live in the north west. winters are usually mild but wet.
last winter was the first time we had needed the drying crystals routine.
this winter the MH probably will be in a metal barn.
doubt it is heated or insulated.
do we still close all vents and use the crystals?
thanks all

we always stored it outside without crystals.
but last year was awfully wet!

I live in the NW also and store our trailer outside. Instead of closing vents and using crystals, I crack open the vents and crack open a couple of windows, and use NO crystals. Has worked great for the past 7 years.

And I would use the same method if it were stored indoors.

but do i still use the crystals and close the vents when it is in a shed?

I use peppermint oil and fresh cab, no mice in my rv,s or my boats, renew the peppermint oil couple times a winter if you can, or just put some in a little dish, I sprinkle mine threw out the rv, even top of tires.and there stored in a pole bldg in the country.
