ABSTRACT:
A cover for containers, especially glass jars, that are used to store and keep fresh consumable merchandise, such as tobacco, coffee, or tea. The cover includes structure for receiving a cover mount member that facilitates attachment of a mechanical interface structure that carries and supports a humidity control member in a manner that further facilitates gravitational capillary action of the water in the humidistat. In kit form, a cover mount member is provided with structure that facilitates attachment to a container's cover member and also with mounting structure for fitting a mechanical interface, such as a grommet, that receives the inlet end of a humidistat. The cover mount member and humidity control member are detachable from the cover member for filling the humidity control member with water. The humidity control valve at the distal end of the humidity control member is adjustable for delivering the desired humidity according to the dryness of the product contained in the container.
