Humidity and changing temperatures can affect stored metals—even gold bars. While gold itself doesn't rust, improper storage conditions in Michigan can impact protective packaging or other metals stored nearby.

To reduce moisture risks:

• Use airtight containers – Sealed storage helps block humidity.
• Add desiccant packs – These absorb excess moisture in safes or boxes.
• Choose dry, temperature-stable areas – Avoid basements or attics with inconsistent conditions.
• Use fireproof and waterproof safes – These provide better environmental control.
• Inspect regularly – Periodic checks help catch early signs of packaging wear or exposure.

Taking proactive steps ensures long-term preservation and peace of mind, especially in Michigan’s variable climate.
