Disconnect the battery cables at the positive and negative terminals. Try to have the voltage at mid-charge…not full and not at the bottom. They should be fine.

Agree; disconnect cables, store at mid charge, and disconnect BMS, so you have zero battery drain.
Does it freeze where you are at? if so, add some heat with small light bulb/small heat source and blanket to keep battery from freezing.

Do not use a float charger.

Increase it to 36.5v-37v. (3.65v-3.7v per cell) 3.49v per cell is a little low for long time storage.
