    After Reading This You’ll Never Throw Away These Bags Again

    When we buy shoes or other items we often find bags of silica gel in the boxes. Since it is written on the bag that they are toxic if digested, we throw them away without knowing they are not completely useless. However, there are many convenient ways you can use them around the home because they can dry out almost anything around them. These are some of ways you can use silica gel.
     

     
     

    1. Put them in your gym bag
    These bags’ main purpose 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 between towels
    Prevent your towels from getting damp and smelling unpleasantly by putting a few of these in the towel cabinet.
     
    3. Make your razors last longer
    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.
     
    4. Save your drowned phone
    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 most definitely adore this one, since foggy car windows cause me a lot of problems especially in this damp weather season. This goes to all you drivers out there; it’s 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.
     
     

     
     

    6. Save your old photos
    Old photos usually deteriorate with time, which is really sad because they are the sole reminders of our past and are quite dear to our hearts. Put a couple of silica gel bags in your box of old photos to save them from the dampness that can ruin them.
     
    7. Save your make up
    Every women needs to have a bag or two of silica gel in her make up purse to stop the powdery make up from curdling.
     
    There you have it, 7 fun and useful tips which can make your life easier. Next time you buy something with silica gel bags in it don’t throw them away, they can be quite useful. Can you think of another way you can use these bags, maybe you’re already using them for something we haven’t mentioned? Please share your thoughts and ideas, we can all learn something new.
