Cleaning is very important. Daily cleaning will protect your house against unnecessary moisture and dirt. Divide the house area and do one to one cleaning rather than cleaning the house at one go.

Doors and windows of your home can be protected in the same way.
Try to free the space to channelise ventilation
Avoid buying any new furniture, especially wooden furniture. Keep simple, useful and functional objects. If you're planning to renovate the house, monsoon is not the best season. Postpone your renovation plans and make use of the old clothes, rugs and carpets. Do not forget to vacuum your carpets and rugs to get rid of the musty smell.
