Condensation prevention without drilling?

I have some condensation in my headlight, i done a search on here and some people reccomend drilling a hole in the back of the light to allow it to breathe.

I would prefer to avoid this, but is there any other way of finding a way of preventing it from building up?

Thanks.

improving circulation or silicon appear to be the best ways.
Alternatively it would be to 100% seal the unit with low humidity air. however this simply isnt possible due to the way they are made, need access for bulbs etc.

take the rear cover off for a few days, this will help alot. (if weather is nice and dry for a few days)
