They usually are crap. If you want a hygro, get yourself a digital one. I recommend Xikar hygrometers. I would agree that putting a bead of silicone around the hygro opening would be a solid idea.

edit: remember, you dont want the hygro to be completely air-tight. An allowance for some small amount of air exchange is recommended (other than you opening it frequently)
