Car Left in Garage

One of our clients in a home at Lely Resort leaves a car with a convertible top in their garage with the battery disconnected and windows and doors tightly closed. Because the garage isn't temperature controlled with A/C we regularly poke our nose inside the car to make sure there are no problems. Because of the lack of air conditioning in the garage it has always had a musty odor but there was nothing we could do to improve the situation. Several weeks ago we checked the car as always and we discovered the start of mold/mildew on the center console as shown in the photo. We contacted the owner and decided the only course of action was to leave the doors open and place a Damp-Rid container inside. Fortunately allowing the car to air out along with adding the Damp-Rid all signs of mildew have subsided. Keeping our fingers cross that things stay that way!
