DD has lived in Fl for nearly 20 yrs & we spent several winters there. DD freezes everything....all food that is opened but doesn't need to be in fridge goes in her freezer. Try to keep the damp & critters away.She even freezes chips.

Oh good grief!! How well I remember those days too. My bag of dampened clothes was always taking up space in the freezer. DH thought I was weird. But the truth is that, here in FL., with the awful humidity and mold problems before a.c. in everyone's home, we HAD to do things like that. Leave that dampened bag of clothes out for a day or two (if you couldn't get it finished quickly,) and your clothes would need to be washed all over again to get the musty smell out.
