7 importance of Silica Gel,stop throwing them away

Silica gel bags which we often find in shoe boxes usually
end up in the trash, just because we believe they’re so useless and even toxic.However, the truth is
that there is no poison in them at all. They are
filled with a substance called silicon dioxide which
shouldn’t be eaten but it can be very useful around the
house. They are a non-toxic inert desiccant that will dry
out anything around them. See 7 ways you can use them:
1. Put them in your Gym bag
The main purpose of silica gel is to absorb the extra
moisture and protect your shoes. Bacteria mostly thrive
in damp and moist
environments so they can help you eliminate the
dampness and germs from your gym bag. They can also
eliminate the foul odor.
2. Put them in- between your towels
Prevent your towels from getting damp and smelling
unpleasantly by putting a few of these silica gel in the towel cabinet.

Instead of leaving your razor around in the bath where
it’s always wet put it in a plastic container with a few
silica bags inside. It will make it last longer.

When your phone drops in water and gets all wet
instead of putting it in a jar of rice try the same with
silica bags. Fill a jar with them and put your mobile in, it
will be much more effective
5. No more foggy car windows
I personally adore this one, since foggy car
windows cause me a lot of problems especially during
damp weather season.This goes to all you drivers out
there; it is actually a true lifesaver in the winter. Instead of
waiting for the air conditioning to do its job,which in
older car models can take forever, put a bunch of these
silica gel bags under your windshield from the inside
immediately. You’ll see that tomorrow your windows
won’t be foggy. It’s the fastest way to stop your
windows from fogging up and you’ll save yourself the 10
extra minutes needed to clean them up.

bags in your box of old photos to save them from the
dampness that can ruin them.
