The Winter months bring wet coats, hats, and gloves. Keep these out of your closets until dry. Hang in the bathroom and if you have fan let it run until they are dry. Otherwise hang in a warm spot. This ensures they will dry faster. Save those silica-gel packets that come in shoes, bags, etc. and place a few in your closets, under your car seats, and anywhere else that gets damp. These will absorb moisture and keep odors away.
