My tent has not been used in quite a while, and I used it this last weekend, needless to say it was a bit stuffy and miffy in there, not bad, but not ideal. I cannot see any mould, so that is good. The elastic inside the poles that hold them together has also lost all their elasticity, so trying to get the poles to fit into eachother while trying to push the elastic down the pole was a bit of a mission.

1. How do you guys wash your tent and keep it fresh until the next camping trip?
2. Where in Pretoria or Gauteng can I get the elastic inside the poles replaced?

Thanks!
