Proper ventilation in the home is important round the year and especially in monsoon, when moisture has a high dominance. Make sure you switch the ventilation fan on in the rooms to let the moisture out through the vent. Remember not to purposely leave the fan on for too long to avoid attracting more humidity. Focus on rooms that are deprived of proper ventilation like the Kitchen where you cook and the basement where you store washers and dryers. If you notice a room gathering more humidity with no scope of ventilation, try to crack a space for the window just to get some fresh air movement.

If you notice your carpet being a problem of humidity, consider replacing or removing it for the time being.
