Keeping people in travel trailers is just a bad idea. You can build small houses for less that the cost of trailers. And if you build them right, they can be moved.

You really have to air out new construction, seal openings, and pay attention to clean-up. A lot of the short-cuts once used, can’t be used anymore. Because of the humidity I generally prime all new wood, even studs, and especially OSB, because the stuff turns to mush if it gets wet.
