Just because we consider and believe that silica gel bags that often find in shoe box are toxic and completely useless, you usually put them in the garbage.
These 8 useful tips will make our lives easier and do not get rid of them next time when you will buy something new with these bags.
However, they are not poisonous. They are actually filled with silicon dioxide, which is actually very useful. Here how you can use these gal bags:
#1 Put them between towels
By putting a few of these in the towel cabinet, prevent your towels form smelling unpleasant and getting damp.
#2 Put silica gel bags in the gym bag
Protecting the shoes and absorbing the extra moisture are the main purposes of these bags. Bacteria mostly exist in moist and damp environments, so the gal bags will help you to eliminate germs and dampness from your gym bag. The foul odor can be also eliminated by them.
#3 Stop the windows from fogging up
Especially in the damp season, a lot of problems can be caused by foggy car windows. These bags are real lifesaver in the winter. Put a few bags under the windshield from the inside and your windows will not be foggy tomorrow.
You will save yourself 10 min needed to clean them up so this is the fastest way to stop the windows from fogging up.
#4 The razors will last longer
Instead of leaving the razor around in the wet bath, put it in a plastic box with several bags inside.
#5 Save your old photos
The old photos are quite dear to our hearts and sole reminders of our past, but they usually deteriorate with time. In the box of old photos, put several couples of silica gel bags to save them from the dampness that often ruin them.
