Did you know that most gear should be stored at temperatures between 20-25 degrees C and 68-77 degrees F ? With the exception of HCG and HGH. Gear should also be protected from light and moisture. I hesr of guys hiding their gear in the garage or attic which is not a good idea because temps may fall outside ofthe desirable stroage requirments.
Safe handling is also often over looked. You should store your gear in a clean enviroment, not in a dirty old sock under your bed.
