Violin Varnish

Violin humidity level!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
I recently moved into a new house and my strings became rusted. I’ve been using the dampit properly (I have a dampit humidity indicator which I hang inside the room its kept). But I don’t know what may have caused this. I’ve also noticed lines developing on the ribs and the lower side of the instrument (its seems to be in the varnish) and maybe some colour changes. So if any one can help I’d really appreciate it.
Thanks!
If you see some lines developing on the ribs and lower sides of the instrument, the wood is TOO dry and shrinking. The dampit should be PLACED in the violin case with the violin in it when not in use.
This way, you are guaranteed the dampit will give out the necessary humidity and , always make sure you damp the dampit occasionally.
If it is too dry in your room, you can use a small bowl of soup filled with water and place it in a corner somewhere. If after 2 days the water dropped, then it is slightly dry in your room .
The bowl of water will take care of the humidity. Just keep filling it.
Enjoy
