Can speakers be stored in a garage?


I'm putting my stereo up for a while. Everything is boxed up in factory boxes and packing.
There is no place inside our townhome to store it. If I put the boxes in large plastic bags to prevent humidity from entering the boxes can I store it in our detached garage for a long time? This applies to the speakers, electronics and turntable.

The stinkiest lowest grade dryer anti-static sheets that money can buy. 

Put them in the boxes, and that will keep all critters away. They hate that stuff. 

It'll drive wasps, bugs, mice, squirrels, raccoons, etc, right out of an attic.

It's flat out toxic. Never use those dryer sheets around humans, essentially. 

Keep the boxes off the ground, away from fluctuating temp and humidity, and you might be good for a short while. I usually put a 1000 watt heater in the garage if I have to store audio there. Just to keep from freezing and to keep the moisture down. The heater also keeps things away from the dreaded dew points. A couple of cycles are no big deal. Repeated cycles are the problem.

Best to stay away from the garage and go for climate controlled storage facilities.
