Problem With Silica Gel Packets👇

.

🍬Silica gel packets themselves aren't inherently harmful to the environment, as they're typically made from non-toxic materials like SILICON DIOXIDE

🍬But if they end up in landfills, they can take a long time to break down, contributing to waste accumulation

🍬If they're incinerated, they can release harmful fumes

🍬Otherwise they can be ingested by animals or children

.

SO HOW TO REUSE THESE PACKETS?👇

.

📦They can be used for keeping MOISTURE out of small spaces like shoeboxes or storing with valuable items to prevent moisture damage. Simply drop 1-2 packets in your storage compartments

📦Drop some in your SHOES to prevent moisture/smells

📦Store them with ELECTRONICS to prevent rusting of metal parts

📦Keep them with your razor to prevent RUSTING

📦If they become saturated with moisture, you can REGENERATE them by drying them out in the oven at a low temperature, or even under the sun

📦Got more ideas? Drop em in the COMMENTS and I'll add good ones to the caption
