How to Get Musty Odors Out of My Home?

First, hire a professional to check for mold or animal waste in your crawl space. You don’t want to be the one down there, especially without the right protective gear. Next, invest in professional crawl space encapsulation. This includes a vapor barrier, dehumidifier, sump pump, and vent covers that defend against all forms of moisture in your crawl space to keep it permanently dry. Don’t attempt to install any of these with a DIY project, as you could cause more damage to your crawl space. Additionally, don’t just use sprays to cover up musty odors, as this doesn’t solve the actual issue.
