Default Keeping strawberries fresh longer?

Strawberries for some reason only last perhaps 4 days max in the
refrigerator. Sometimes its 2 days, if you didn't get very fresh ones
to begin with. Then they start growing a whitish mold. What is it,
and can you do something (other than freezing) to prevent the growth
of this mold?



Keep them dry, more air circulation around them. Wash them just
before eating.
