In Handy Tips, we find ways to improve your life and make it easier and explain why these tips work. Today, we will tell you why you shouldn’t throw those small packets will silica gel that come in shoeboxes away and why they can even be useful for you.
The small packets with silica gel that lie inside every shoebox always say, “Don't eat” and “Throw away.” You really don't need to eat these small balls, but you shouldn't throw them away because they may be useful to you.
1. The packet will protect your clothes from moisture, bacteria, and unpleasant odor
Throw a few silica gel packets into your gym or pool bag. By absorbing moisture, they prevent the growth of bacteria and mold, and thus the odor.
2. The packet will stop your windshield from fogging up
Put a few silica gel packets on the dashboard in the evening. In the morning, you will have significantly fewer problems with fogged up glass.
3. The packet will keep your shoes dry and safe
It is obvious that the balls will successfully perform their predetermined function in shoes that are already in use. They are especially handy for those whose legs are characterized by excessive sweating.
4. The packet will save your wet smartphone
Forget the rice! Cover a wet phone with silica gel packets, and the chances of a full recovery will increase significantly.
5. The packet will help your knives always stay sharp
The less time the knife blade is covered with moisture, the longer it stays sharp. Put the silica gel in your knife storage, and you will need to sharpen them much less frequently.
6. The packet will save your family photos
A paper archive of memories will not stick together or collapse if you put silica gel balls in a box with photographs.
7. The packet can extend the life of your razor
If you store the razor in a container with silica gel balls, the blades will be sharp even when the indicator strip is wiped clean.
