Reading about foxing, I realize possibly I should use some
dessicant packets to keep the humidity down on my
prints.

I have them stored in folders inside several (acid free)
cardboard boxes. I could put dessicant packets inside the
boxes, not letting them touch any prints. At least for
the Boston summer, which can be muggy.

Does anyone see any problem with this? Any recommended
brand/type of dessicant? Any online sources?

I did manage to find one source:
http://www.dehumidify.com/ProdDisc.html.
The product is only $6, and can be renewed by
baking it in an oven
