De-Humidification Techniques?

De-Humidification Techniques?
So what is everyone using to de-humidify guitars? I’m in Florida, and haven’t found any solid solutions yet. Acclimating to my bench area is the best I have this moment. Products, techniques?
Much appreciated.

This stuff came into my world due to 3d printing. Its pretty cool, reusable and worth checking out. There are a tom of things you can 3d print to hold these in place inside a guitar Might be cool to model something for the sound-hole like the items used to humidify guitars.

How “powerful” are these? I’ve stashed some of the desiccant packets before, and have seen slight changes. The more the merrier?

Not 100% sure how strong they are, but they change colors when they saturate. You can just microwave them to release the H2O.

Nice. Gonna grab some. See how they do.

We use to tell people to put a few cups of dry rice in a sock while leaving the guitar in the case before the advent of Boveda Humidipaks. I just saw Boveda came out with some specifically for de-humidifying in high humidity areas. Looks like they are being sold by D’Addario and they’re called Absorb.
