Best options for prints handling high levels of humidity

Hello everyone!

I was asked to print someone a case which would be placed in a bathroom and my question is:

What would be the best filament option for it? (We have PLA and PETG currently.)

Some general questions relating to this:

How long does PLA last indoors?
How does PETG & PLA in particular handle humidity after being printed?

Thank you guys in advance!
