Send it back to BM for replacement or buy a Rawlite replacement which you can fit yourself which has better IR cut and and an OLPF as well.

Some advice on how to avoid getting fungus and molds on your gear, assuming you're in a humid area.

Get a clear plastic Tupperware container that can fit all your gear when not in use. Buy a bunch of Silica gels and spread a a couple of handfuls inside the container, amongst your gear. It can be any container as long as it is air tight (like it has a seal). This will keep your gear dry. Replenish silica every 4-6 months. This is a cheap way to keep your camera and lenses dry.

Example Silica to buy. https://www.amazon.com/Desiccant-Packet ... 29&sr=8-21

Put a few of them in your camera bag when you're traveling and even when not.
