How do I get rid of mold smell on a styrofoam hot tub cover?

I just moved into a house that has a hot tub- I was thrilled! However, after opening the cover, I have discovered it (the cover, not the hot tub) was COVERED in mold. I have scrubbed it with vinegar, cleaning solutions, and bleach. The mold is gone now, but nothing has worked to get rid of the smell. I think the cover is made of foam or styrofoam, but can’t open it to see inside to tell. Does anybody know how to get rid of this smell?

Thank you!

    Make a solution with tea tree oil. Mix 2 teaspoons of tea tree oil with 2 cups of water and spray the solution all over the cover or wipe through the cover. Let the solution to stand at least 30 minutes before wiping off with clean damp cloth. This should remove the musty smell.

    Hope this helps.
