Gosh- I'm still 'stuck' here in NC and now I am wondering if I might have to get a hermetically sealed chamber and a tank of dry nitrogen in which to store my lenses! Actually, some of my stuff is 25 years old ( or more) and keeping it in a back (cloth) on a high closet shelf between uses has never hurt it. It seems to me that getting it out, exercising the shutters and 'airing out' the lenses is all you need! Cheers from the soggy South!
