My uncle just recently fixed up our family deer camp. Now there is a musty old smell in it and we have put air fresheners everywhere and that doesn't help. Does anyone know what will.
I hunt too. I'm not trying to make it smell all pretty that would drive me insane. It's everyomne in our family that doesn't want the musty old smell.
 
DJ gave a good answer. You need to deal with the humidity.

Most deer camps employ the used of old, leftover furniture that was headed for the landfill. Often times they will have odors associated with them (mold and mildew) that are close to impossible to get rid of (mildew on the seat cushions of a couch).

One thing you can TRY is to buy a fresh bag of charcoal. Now that summer is over, you might be able to find some on closeout. Just open the bag wide and allow the charcoal to do it's job. It will usually absorb both odors and humidity from the air.

Baking soda is another alternative, but much more expensive for the amount of cubic feet you are trying to deodorize.
