Still appears to be a good emergency product to have on hand with a five year + shelf life, in case of a weather flood alert this could save you from having water getting in flooding your home.

I'm on my third year using the same one during the California rainy season (Dec-Mar). I fold it up and pack it in a box after it's fully dried. That option may not be possible in humid environments.
Good to know that you've gotten far more use out of it! The Amazon listing from the manufacturer themselves says one season. I'll definitely buy this now that I know it can last longer. Question @sdpennypincher is yours also 17' or smaller in size? I wonder if this longer one would tear when attempting to move it?

And for what it's worth, I average 60 inches of rain per year and this is placed in front of my garage door on a 30 ft driveway that slopes downward toward the garage....so it gets a good workout each year.
I had same problem but used can of spray foam...worked great also
