Are you saying just the roof area has moisture and no condensation on the walls?
- For any condensation problem it seems the first consideration would be to purchase a dehumidifier as they will collect excess moisture.
- Dehumidifiers of any size usually start at $100 and go up according to size and other features and can be purchased at Walmart, Home Depot, Lowe's, Ace hardware as well as online.
- If your roof is not vented properly then this may be part of your problem.
- It may also help to "air" out your mobile home a couple of times a day. Opening several windows or doors even 10 or 15 minutes twice a day will help.
- Plastic film on your windows may help with any condensation in that area. This film is sold at most stores as well as the Dollar Tree.
- Here is a link that has some other suggestions that you may be able to apply to help stop the condensation.

Keep the air circulating by placing a fan in the window to pull the air from the inside out. Or use a dehumidifier but this is expensive. Line the inside of the roof with bubble wrap. That will prevent the inside air from condensing on the cooler roof. Good luck.

Make sure you have proper insulation.
