FAQs:
Q: Why does rice work to reduce moisture?
A: Rice is naturally absorbent. It draws moisture from the air, helping reduce humidity and prevent mold growth in enclosed spaces like bathrooms.
Q: Can I reuse the rice?
A: Once rice absorbs too much moisture, it won’t be as effective. It’s best to replace it every 3–4 weeks, especially if it starts to smell musty or clump together.
Q: Is this safe around pets or kids?
A: Yes, as long as the rice is kept in a secure container out of reach. Avoid placing it where it could be knocked over or spilled.
Q: Do essential oils help with moisture too?
A: Not directly. Essential oils add fragrance but don’t absorb moisture. However, they can help keep your bathroom smelling fresh.
