    I'm looking to pick up some desiccant boxes like this. They are commonly used in Asia to reduce air humidity and combat mould. Does anyone know where I could find some in Dublin city centre?

    Decwells on South Great Georges street, or any hardware, should have moisture traps.

    I like the UniBond Aero 360 pure one, but there are others..

    I imagine they use them in Asia due to the fact they are small and relatively cheap. A dehumidifier is a better choice IMO and what most Europeans use. An electronic dehumidifier is a far superior option. Powercity or DID sell them

    Homestore and More do them, but not very city centre though.

    The unibond aero 360 is a good one. I use one in my bathroom. They're no replacement for a dehumidifier if there are bigger issues, but I've found they do a good preventative job.

    I also have one of the smaller globe-shaped unibond dessicant boxes. It's ok, but a bit messier as the plastic globe breaks apart too easily. You could easily end up with a spill.

    I bought mine in woodies near glasnevin cemetery. Not too far from the city centre.

    Dealz have them as said, most hardware shops will be a lot more expensive.
