I'll try placing in a bag of freshly oven activated silica gel perhaps,
unless anyone has serious concerns about that.


I don't see what benefit dry ice could possibly have for you. It isn't a
dessicant, despite the name. (It just doesn't melt to water!)

There are storage bags meant to be squashed around the contents by
applying a vacuum cleaner. That might help with the dessication...

I could see dry-ice freezing out water vapour, but it would only settle
inside.
But it did make me think of adding a 12V fan inside the bag of activated
silica gel , to circulate the air .
