Unless yourstorage spaceis a hermetically sealed room equipped withUVC lights and ozone generators(pretty much an operating room)all you've done is waste an awful lot of time and money, especially doing it this far in advance. Your Scent Lok was contaminated at the store before you even bought it, and stayed that way regardless of what you've done to it, stop wasting your money on that overhyped crap. The baking soda is doing more for you than anything else you listed, and at least it was cheap, stop using it so far ahead of the season.
