Here is what I do. Find a pill container because they are lock proof so moisture doesnt get in. Take the container and either knock the pollen off into it or throw the nanners in it. If you put the nanners in make sure you dry them out before capping the container. Moisture will ruin the pollen. Then after a few days of drying cap it then put it in a ziplock bag. Fridge first to cool it off then throw in freezer. By doing so my pollen has stayed viable for 3 years. When it's time to use it again remove from the freezer and let it sit out to room temp before opening the cap. Then dust away! Hope this helps
