I'd move it away from the heat. I suspect that it's just the garlic
you're buying. I used to buy a garlic rope once a year, hang it in the
kitchen and detach a bulb when needed. With any luck it lasted 12
months although the garlic declined a bit in quality over the last month
or two.

I'll have to see if there's a good rope for sale at the local market
this year as my old supplier moved into maple syrup (don't ask).
