Camping Tent: How To Clean It After Your Holiday

The camping tent must be stored in the attic, but before doing so, it is necessary to clean it as best as possible to avoid the risk of mold forming and unpleasant odors remaining with the danger of not being able to reuse it the following year. In any case, it is preferable before disassembling it and returning home to clean the tent with a brush to eliminate dust and any mud.

- Once at home, put the tent back outside or where you have a water pump, fill a bucket with warm water and neutral soap, dip a rag and squeeze it lightly to remove the excess water.
