A urinalysis strip container lid can cut out moisture.
Our styptic powder would often get damp, ruining it. I noticed that the VetLab UA Analyzer urinalysis strips (IDEXX Laboratories) container had desiccant in the lid, so when we used the last strip, I saved the container. I cut the container to an appropriate height, filled it with styptic powder, and reused the lid.
