Information
HOW TO USE:
- Insert the unwrapped Boveda 84% into a pocket or available open area inside your reed case. (Make your Boveda last 2.5 times longer with a Boveda Mini Fabric Holder, which is available separately here.)
- Close the lid, so Boveda can add or absorb moisture as needed to balance humidity in the reed case.
DON'T:
- Mix different Boveda RH levels within the same reed case
- Use Boveda in the same case with other humidification products because they will fight against each other and reduce the efficiency of the Boveda

Use one (1) Boveda Size 8 with up to eight (8) woodwind reeds in a reed case or with a reed storage humidification system.
