Keep relative humidity between 40-60%
And you’ll be fine. A good quality hard case, I’ve found Hiscox to give the best seal, will help a great deal. Get a hygrometer to assess the RH in your home and in the case.
One thing to note is that you can lose over-humidify too. Not usually as dramatic as an overly dry instrument but it will likely raise playing action and impact on the sound quality.
There are humidification systems that will also absorb moisture if needed.
