Why is Boveda better than a wet sponge?

Boveda is precise, works automatically and is mess free. Wet sponges do one job—add moisture. You never know if it’s too much or too little. Boveda adds or removes moisture as needed to achieve and maintain precise humidity inside a humidifier box.

Can Boveda directly touch my products?

Yes. Inside each Boveda is all-natural salts and water sealed in a leakproof membrane. Boveda doesn’t change the taste of your items. The humidity control preserves their already great flavor. Boveda is FDA compliant and food safe.

Do you tear open the brown Boveda packet?

NO!!! If your Boveda arrived individually wrapped in cellophane, remove that plastic overwrap before slipping the humidity control pack into your humidifier box. DO NOT OPEN the brown packet itself.

When Should I Replace Boveda?

Every 2 to 4 months in a wood humidifier box or 6 to 9 months in an airtight plastic container. Subscribe to Boveda to have replacements automatically sent to you at a frequency that’s right for you.

Can I recharge Boveda?

No. Rehydrating a pack prevents it from reaching exact precision, sets you up for extreme humidity fluctuations and can introduce water-born contaminants into your humidifier box. Why risk it?
