   When did you install the floor-time of year?

   What was the moisture content of the flooring?

   Is there visqueen over the dirt/gravel in that crawl?

   thanks.

   If you left a proper expansion gap at the walls and it's still doing this (all else being equal), then I dunno.

    Totally out-in-left-field idea: If you didn't leave an expansion gap, you might try removing the baseboard and cut away 3/4" of the flooring at the wall (on the board-width sides, of course, not the long sides). It's an awful lot of work and I doubt any circ or jig saw would get that close to the wall, although a Fein Multimaster should reach (though you might well destroy it trynig to cut that much walnut).

   If a larger expansion gap is needed i.e. 1/2"  I'd use a toe kick  or jamb saw.

   Stop venting the crawl space and make it conditioned space.

   Assuming all manufactures instructions  where followed.

      You now need to condition the crawl space.
