I use Scott's beads and they are great. Once things get under control you will be fine. Don't panic. Like he said read the instructions for drying out the beads so they can absorb the excess moisture. I have had the same problem in the past and it can be frustrating. Scott will shoot me for what I am about to say, but if its getting way too wet too fast and you don't have any dry beads to work with you can also try some of the kitty litter beads that have been mentioned around the forums. Granted they don't work well at releasing moisture and maintaining the RH but they do do what they were intended for and that's suck up moisture. We went through a wet period last year where it rained for like 18 straight days and the RH in the house was like 100%. I used them to keep the RH down then and then removed them when the weather dried out.
