unique RH question...

I've run into a bit of a problem lately due to our naturally humid climate here in Houston. We all know that cigars are best stored between 65-70% but I personally like to smoke mine dry, dry, dry.

It's been cooler and drier over the last few months and I've been able to just leave my cigars outside the humi for a few days to dry them out prior to smoking but now that it's starting to warm up again, the humidity is getting out of control.

I don't have any issues with storage but leaving them out to dry is no longer an option. They just don't lose any moisture that way and I suspect they may actually be getting "wetter" when left out. Is there another way to get some of the moisture out? I know Heartfelt has 65% beads but I think I need something a little lower for dryboxing. thanks
