damp living -- a lament from Wales

[Cataboo]

Try boric acid solution instead of your bleach solution:

We are just renting the house, so any structural changes or carpet removal is not an option at the moment. And moving to another house won't help as most houses here seem to be equally poorly constructed! I have scheduled heavy cleaning for the week-end (fingers crossed the weather will be good) and am trying to talk BF into buying a dehumidifier but electricity isn't cheap here so he's sceptical. Somehow comforting to know it's not just me.....although I wouldn't wish damp living on anyone! One day....one day...maybe...if we find the money....we can build our own house, one that is constructed well and built to deal with the prevailing climate in the region!
