Put dry corn Kernels in your Salt Shaker to absorb moisture

To reduce moisture in your salt shaker, be sure to put dry corn kernels in it. The dry kernels will absorb the moisture.

Give it a try.

How to Control Corn Earworms in your Home Vegetable Garden

Earworms are also referred sometimes as the fruit worm. They look like caterpillars and can grow over an inch in length. Their color range can be green, brown, yellow or tan and have black or brown stripes on their sides.
