I tried leaving a sample of cat litter in there and after a day it was damp. Im assuming though you would have to throw it away and start again otherwise it would just release that mosture back into the air during a colder dry period.
I thougt the same thing. Use it as a moisture "sink". But in the grand scale of things not that effective.If it's only the upper holds that are getting sweaty, is that not due to warm damp air rising? Maybe a vent of some sort in the roof might help?
I think its a combination of condenstation and water leaking in through the (corrugated PVC) roof, specifically where the roof sits on top of the walls.
