What does everyone think about cutting up pieces of sponge and scattering
them (moistened) throughout the case and moistening them with some water
when they dry out? That is what I have done for the past couple years
and haven't had a problem. It helped a lot during my first experience of
the dry Chicago air during the winter from all the heat this year. I
relied on that and oiling the clarinet often (maybe once a week or every
2 weeks) with Almond oil.

Am I doing harm to my insruments?

Thanks!
