These are signs of high humidity in your home, and the solution is a basement dehumidifier.
If your portable dehumidifier is running all day, it’s not keeping up. Aprilaire dehumidifiers remove up to 2½ more gallons of water per day — keeping your basement mildew and odor free. Invest in a high capacity, high efficiency unit that works.

*Operating costs calculated by multiplying the average amount of
actual daily run time, power consumption when running and local utility
electric rate. All products were tested concurrently in actual basement
conditions, NOT a lab test chamber. These were actual real-life
operating comparisons.
