Hey all,
I am having humidity issues and can’t afford an expensive air conditioning unit or expensive dehumidifier. I do have a dehumidifier on the way, but I figured I’d start this topic to generate ideas beyond the obvious. After some research I came across a couple ideas I’ve never tried. First is to buy coconut shell charcoal and do on or two things. Since charcoal helps eliminate odor, and pulls in humidity from the air, I’m going to get some and put it in a fine mesh bad and hang it in the grobo (in such a was as no charcoal dust blows everywhere. Second will be to put some in a big bowl in the room. Next thing I learned is that rock salt will also pull moisture out of the air (think when you put a wet phone in rock salt, or rice) put salt in a bowl/container with holes in bottom place that in another bowl with room between the two. The salt will pull moisture out of the air and will drop into the bottom container as water. Lastly after just realizing that yes rice pulls moisture really well, I might just start with rice in a fine mesh bag. Any other cool ideas are welcome and hoped for.
