Another source is Fresh Step brand kitty litter. Although if you have
cats in the house, this not not be a good choice!

The cheapest source of silica Gel, which I found when when I was moving house
ten years ago and wanted to put stuff in Deep storage for years while we were
away, was as florists supplies.
Apparently it is used for drying flowers.

Not had this problem. Los Angeles, while dry much of the time, can have very
tropical humidity. You might try storing the film boxes in sealable freezer
bags. You can put a bag of silica gel in the bags to absorb excessive moisture.
Silica gel can be found with a web search. Its renewed by baking it.

I just went out to my darkroom to load some film in holders, and found thatRichard Knoppow
there were about 8-10 sheets literally glued together! This is the first time
this has ever happened. I didn’t think it was THAT much more humid out there
than in the house! I run the AC a bit in the afternoon in the house, and in
the darkroom when I’m working there. The darkroom is a slab on grade building
and it stays relatively cool. It doesn’t SEEM all that humid out there.
I plan to start storing film inside, but I wonder what other people do in humid
areas to prevent this, besides running your AC constantly.
