Need to get airflow under the mattress or insulate the underneath of the bed to prevent vapour build up from temperature differentials.
Can air out the mattress as well every few days and store it with air able to flow around it, like on end.
I use those foam mats that puzzle together on the bed base for insulation and an airflow underlay on top of the foam that the mattress rests on. I used to pull the mattress outside to air in the sun every few days but find the foam and underlay does the trick though still put the mattress on end while parked and not in use.
The underlay I use is DekProTek which is a drainage pad for plants but there are products made specifically for RVs but I'm a cheap Scot.
Airflow is the name of the game, solar fans are great for assisting in air movement inside the unit as well, happy camping!
