Hey folks I read the label of Damp-Rid and found it is just calcium chloride. You can buy a 5 lb bucket of it in any pool store for a few dollars. Fill nylon stocking with it and hang 'em in your keezer. Way cheaper.

Hmmm I was just thinking about putting something in my keezer. My question would be since I do get a little water on the bottom, would the damp rid will help that?
According to my search, the calcium chloride has some unknown 10% added, that is probably quite toxic.
I've usually wiped out the bottom every few weeks, which is fine though it's a bit of a hassle.
My concern is with the water causing rust, which so far has wiped off.
I'm on the way to Walmart to either get DampRid, or else one of the Eva-Dry 500's.
just curious ...... I have the same problem with my keezer the walls are pretty wet and i get a small puddle on the floor. I bought damp rid after reading this thread but after doing some research calcium chloride is very caustic to metals ie. our kegs. now my question is if it would need to be in direct contact with the kegs to cause a reaction or does damp-rid cause the enviroment ( the air ) to become more caustic and will react with the metal regardless of contact ? I think whoever has used this method for a while should be able to answer this fairly well. Thanks for the advice in advance.
