Humidity is up where I live also. I control the humidity in my safe room with a small window type A/C unit. Air conditioning is a great dehumidifier. I have a little tabletop humidity meter thing that I picked up for a couple bucks. When I see the humidity is up, turn it on. Couple hours later it's down.
What about wintertime? Good question. Bring the a/c unit into the room and sit it on a chair or table with a bucket sat underneath to catch the water. SInce the a/c unit is not in the window, it's not exhausting the heat energy to the outside so the temp will not drop in the room and make it cold. In fact, it will raise the temp in the room 2-3 degrees when ran like that because of the added heat energy from the compressor and fan motor running. Pretty slick huh?
Of course if your safe is in a finished room with carpet...swmbo will say get that hillbilly setup out. I'm good on that in the basement with unfinished flooring.
