Advice on cooling a grow space without a/c

I just spawned my first monotub a couple days ago. I'm having trouble keeping the room temps below 80F, so I put a fan in the doorway to pull hot air out of the room. I'm sure this air flow is raising the risk of contaminates in my freshly spawned monotub, so is there any way that I can lower temps without raising air flow? I have no A/C by BTW.

Do you duck have tape on your monotub holes?
Or is your mono in fruiting conditions now?

If spawning the tub in open air and mixing millions of mold spores into the substrate wasnt an issue, then I doubt running a fan will cause problems....
Get AC.

I have tape over the holes, but the lid has gaps.

Personally id find a cheap a/c. If you have a basement move it there, its probably cooler down there.
