My husband used to buy these from Home Depot all the time for about $3. Once I found them at the DT we've been using them ever since and they work just as well.

Damprid is made with calcium chloride crystals. You can youtube search and find videos on how make your own damprid/damptrap etc. carbon.activated charcoal is used for odors. It absorbs odors much better than baking soda. That is why it is used in fish tank filters to clean water. The sponge part cleans the water and the charcoal kills odours. Water filters like Brita, use charcoal also. Anyway you can buy calcium chloride or you can make it from following the youtube videos on how to do that. Also silica crystals can be used. You know those 'Do not eat" tiny packets they put in a lot items and product you buy. That is to absorb moisture. You can buy silica gel or crystals. You can also buy it easily in the form of cat litter. It is used by those who do not like clay based or clumping traditional cat litter, so now there is silica cat litter. And of course the easiest way to get activated charcoal is from a pet shop or a place that sells fish and fish tanks and stuff. I used to buy mine in a big carton at Walmart to use for my fish tanks and for the house. I hope this helps you out on how to make your own dehumidifying container. I know the ones in the dollar store are cheap, but every dollar adds up. when you buy the package of the ingredients and make it yourself, chances are you will have enough to make several in the sizes you want far cheaper than constantly re buying the dollar store ones. You would have to compare and see. For example that is why I got a bread maker and make my own bread. A few dollars for the ingredients that will make many loaves versus a few dollars for one or two loaves at the grocery store.

I definitely won't be making the moisture traps lol ...but absolutely asked for a bread maker this Christmas. Homemade just tastes incredible too. 👏🏿

omg I love these my mommy an I have been using these forever ! God done called mommy home 5 years ago . But she an I started buying them at dollar General before we had a dollar tree , back in 1987 an we had to pay $2.50 for them an when we found them at the dollar tree we bought them up like crazy ! So they do so there job that is for sure ! Thanks for helping me remember a blessed memory of my Mommy an I going shopping!

I'll never forget putting one of these in my former roommate's closet and that bad odor disappearing right afterwards. These things are great. I'm a life-time fan.

Nice! They sell those at my Dollar Tree and I never thought to get one but I'm definitely getting a couple of them now 👍🏽

They recently cut the size down, effectively raising the price of these.

You brighten my day! I've seen these a million times in DT and walked right past...thanks for sharing! 😀

Oh wow!!!! this is amazing! I always see them but never thought they would work. I'm definitely getting them for my son's room TFS

Thank you, I see them all the time but never thought of using them that way. I will be picking some up. Have a blessed day

I agree ,I have been using this item from Dollar Tree for a while and was amazed how well they worked. Thanks for the video.

Thanks you for the moisture Eliminator. We appreciate everything that you do.

I always see these at my DT but never thought to try them out. thanks for sharing this. we have a closed in bathroom so I'm definitely going to pick some up..

Thank you so much for sharing these ! I went out and bought six of them today, and I plan to buy more ! My husband said they used those in the Navy on a certain craft to keep parts from corrosion. I was in the Navy also, and was never aware ! Thanks again! - Jennifer ( Siiri is my daughter :)

I love these and been using then for years in my home. I sure hope they continue to sell them at the Dollar Tree.

I'm glad you posted this video because I saw this in my local Dollar Tree and wanted to know if it was any good. Thanks Sonya!!

I always seen those in dollar tree and wondered what it was for??? Now I know. Thanks Sonya

You showed me something new as always I usually use them mothballs but I went to my $tree bought 20 of them thanks girl

I have to try them, thanks for sharing!

Hi Sonya,I'm gonna try those, love your videos especially when you're shopping with your kids and that. little cute grandbaby of yours .TFS!!!

Sonya thank you so much for sharing I have horrible moisture problems under my sink. Gonna go buy a ton of these 😊

Your the best Sonya!!! Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for uploading this! I was hesitant to buy them, now I definitely will be. :)

Thanks for the great very well done and helpful video. I appreciate you saying to put them higher up in the closets, because I was putting them on the floor and they still work. However perhaps they will work better higher up in different uses and locations. Just to be safe I will put some on the floor and also higher up wherever I can. I remember just about a month ago I bought 30 of these called DAMP TRAP which are almost identical to your 'Moisture eliminator' with the blue plastic trim. The active ingredient is 'Calcium chloride', which is also the active ingredient in the 'Damp Check' more expensive moisture absorbent that are refillable and hold more calcium chloride and cost more money. I even put them in my car under the seats and in the trunk as I have a leak in the front drivers floor of my car and also a leak in the truck and both I haven't found yet where the water comes out.

Thanks Sonya, I'll have to look for these at my local Dollar Tree. I'm used to paying a fortune for the brand name ones. This will save me big time!!

Sonya you soo crazy. LOL😃 thanks for the information on those. I will be picking two of them up. when I go back to the Dollar tree store. tfs ☺

Thank you so much for this video My upstairs Townhome get so muggy from the moisture. I'm going to buy 6 of them today.

Yassssssss indeed, they work!!! I put one under the kitchen sink... didn't think about the closets too YAY! Tfs!!

Thanks for the review, I just bought some bc we moved into a new apt and it's been closed up and humid in there bc we're in FL. I hope they work as good as yours have!

Thanks for the great review. I bought two of these for my basement im so glad they work

Thanks Sonya Going to try it. Have a bless day

I would like to thank you for checking on things that we should be made aware of. You are a busy lady. I see why you say you're tired all the time! I hope that when you sleep your mind rests too.

thanks for sharing. u always have a way.of.makeing me laugh. i may have to try these out

Aren't those moisture eliminators the bomb? We had a huge moisture problem in our house last year went out bought the ones from Wal-Mart then I found the ones from DT and they work just as well and much cheaper.

These are great I use them in my basement. I will have to use it in closets.

I love this product!!! Thank you!!!

I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!!! THANKS FOR SHARING!!!

Thanks for sharing... since I found this at the dollar tree, I have saved so much money. I refill them with the damp rid refillable and it works great.

Aaahhh I was wondering if anyone has done this, because I’m starting to have a hard time finding them in my Dollar Trees. So I’m going to save the old ones I have and refill them with Damprid.

Sonya I accidently ran across your channel. Now I'm hooked! I absolutely love your channel now.

Right on time! Thanks for sharing!

These are amazing! I put them in my basement where a lot of moisture builds up. About 1 or 2 months later they're pretty much full.

Great haul sonyabeonit. I never heard of or seen those. I gotta get me some of those. Thank you.

When I seen you haul those I went to my local store they only had the charcoal one I put it on the floor in the closet I'm going to put it on the top thanks for the tip.

I'm like you with the Made In China deal. Thanks for sharing.

I am going to try this. Thanks for sharing!!!

Thanks for Sharing! Hopefully my local Dollar Tree has these😑

Even if my name wasn't Sonya and I didn't live in GA I would still love you! I am so happy to have you back! It would be nice if they could be refilled.

Hey, thank you for your review. I bought 3 & let me look on KZread to see how this work came across your video it help me to decide to keep them.

I was thinking about mothballs but didn’t want the smell…this review is pure gold Thanks!!!

I going to try these. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Sonya. I was wondering if those really work... It's a most I buy! tfs

Thanks for the tips.

Thank you for sharing Ms Sonya

I use these too! You are too funny! "Just put it your damn closet!"

thanks, I never bought them before or seen them. I'm going to try.

Hey Sonya! I love watching your vlogs. You are so funny. 😅

wow I have never seen those before amazing

😃Yes... I am going to the Dollar Tree and get that instead of damprid to save money

Great Video! I finally found the cactus margarita glasses. I'll be looking for these now! Sonya could you please do a vid about mixers, what kind do you use, why did you pick that one. I need one for Easter cooking and I want to get a good one!

I'm going to be looking for these.

Very informative video

Great video. Love you lady.

thanks for the information I'm going to try them😍

I buy those all the time​ and they are great..love them

Thanks I bought 4 of them today.

So tell me why I was at Dollar Tree picking up an order of these little clear acrylic drawers (they nest together so you can stack up a bunch.) so you know I had to wander the store since I was there. I stopped for a mesh laundry bag and out of the corner of my eye... BAM! they had 4 unopened cases of these, plus a half full case on top. I only saw the charcoal kind. I got two. Ima try em out and see if I get similar results to yours. Your channel name is right... cus Sonya, you be ON IT. 💖

hey Sonyabeonit thanks so much

Dollar tree need to go head and hire you as their spokes person Lol you be giving us all the deals

thanks for letting use know,I've wanted room try for a while, now I'll try,

Thanks for sharing!!

Can you do a video on where you get your head wraps and how you wrap them? They are so gorgeous!

i use this in my bathroom. i used to have this mildew smell in my bathroom hours after i would take a shower. this eliminated the odor.

I saw these at dollar tree just today and meant to get one.

“If you have children. You’re gonna need this.”😂 You’re too funny. I love these things. I use them. Good idea to put in closets. Esp boys rooms. 😂😂😂😂 I’m using them in my basement now. Trying to keep musty odors out.

I got mine , TFS !!!

thank out for sharing. Bless.

I have been using these forever also

Those are very good.

These are great for campers and vehicles as well 👍

Yes they do work!

They are good!

I love these too

P.S. When I weekly check my moisture absorbents I also check to see is any are cracked and leaking because I had one that was leaking and it was a real SOB, difficult to clean them up because the liquid inside is slippery and not easy to wipe up as it leaves a lot of residue when they crack and leak.

Cool how long do they last ? Do you need to change them often or last more than 1 year ?

Coolness!

I just bought one today

I buy 20 at a time because the really work. I use them in the basement and bathrooms.

I buy them all the time they do work

I need to try these if they still have them. The Damprid cans have calcium chloride which can be corrosive to steel. Probably not great for a tool room.

Love you.

I just bought one of these damp traps and i set it on the highest cabinet in my bathroom. Its been there about two months. The first week it captured some water but now the water level remains the same and the white particles are soaked in water but the moisture doestn drain to the lower part of the container why is that?

Can you refill these with the damp rid jug? And if so how much to put in it dry to absorb again? Thanks.

thank you

wonder if you can dry the pelletes in the oven and use again.

Awesome

those work great.

I just might try it

Thanks Miss Sonya for this review! I've walked pass this many times thinking, I just know this isn't going to work, not even worth my $1. Boy was I wrong! I can think of 1/2 dozen areas I can use these at. How long do you think we should leave each one there before replacing them?
