PLEASE help me stop this mildew spreading

Canvas bell tent which I saved for for years and is our only means of a holiday (camping)

I’ve always looked after it so well but the last time I put it up I noticed some mildew spots about the size of my palm.

I took it down and scrubbed them with lemon and white vinegar and then left it up in the sun. However new spots are popping up everywhere. I don’t know why it’s spreading as the tent is bone dry and has no leaves etc on it.

Any advice would be really appreciated. I need to take it down today ideally

try using this spray. it kills the mildrew etc and stops it spreading. i would try spraying with vinegar and lemon again whilst you wait for the spray to arrive
