Comment on Does putting clothes in the closet protect them from dust, or is the dust in there too?

but they still get funky.

If they do you might have high humidity. Depending on the climate you live in better ventilation might help.

Dehumidifier in the summer, particularly in basement areas, is a good idea as well. The AC will lower humidity, but depending on your setup may not fully lower it to the right level.

  The dehumidifier will heat up the room, the AC will have to run more, and your electricity bill will be an absolute doozy.

    Vastly cheaper and healthier than mold.
    
    Never fuck around with water/humidity as a home owner. Do it right.

I live in a desert and clothes, linens, etc. still get that funky smell if they’ve been in the closet for a while.

  Yeah, it’s residual body oils and laundry soap going rancid. Humans are gross.
