Mold mildew

Still have mold/ mildew issues on the cabinets and dinette bench. Keep camper closed up because of the high humidity and have dam rids inside, I am not aware of any water getting in, I have replaced the bunk canvas and installed a weather stripping at the hatch doors to seal off and this really helped. I have used an anti microbial spray that I thought would clean and stop the mold/ mildew from returning. What do I need to do to stop this from reoccurring?

Have you used shockwave? It's what we use in the mold remediation after homes are flooded. Once you clean mold off, spray with shockwave, 4oz to 1 gallon water. Allow to dry. Good luck.

You mention that you keep your camper 'closed up'. Have you considered keeping the roof vents open? And keeping a crank out window open a smidge?
