How to prevent your jewelry from changing colour, protect photographs, paper and more

By - - [ Education ]

USES OF SILICA GEL YOU PROBABLY DO NOT KNOW ABOUT

Silica gel is often found in tiny white sachets at the bottom of a shoe box or inside a new handbag. More often than not, people end up throwing away the sachets not knowing that they can use them for other purposes.!

PREVENT JEWELRY FROM TURNING COLOR

Slip a few packets of Silica gel into your jewelry box. This prevents moisture from tarnishing or deteriorating the quality of your priced belongings!

DRY OUT A WET PHONE

In case your phone tumble into the water. Don’t panic. Just get a few silica packets; remove the case, battery, SIM card, and SD card (if there was one inside) then set them aside. Place the phone in a bowl filled with silica gel packets to dry out the moisture. Wait for at least 24 hours before switching your phone back on.

KEEP UNDER WATER CANERAS DRY

These kind of cameras are usually okay under water but one needs to be careful to avoid pile-up in condensation that leaves streaks on their lenses. A few Silica gel packets will work magic

PROTECTS RAZORS

No one likes rusty razor blades. This is normally caused by oxidation reaction on the metal thanks to free moisture in the air. Keep razors in Tupperware containers filled with Silicone sachets and they will last longer.!

DRY WET CLOTHES

You know that time when the holiday comes to an end and you didn’t pack properly. The last thing you want is that mouldy smell when you toss your wet swimsuit into your travel bag. Place your wet clothes in a different bag and place a few Silica sachets in them. No mouldy smell when you get home!

KEEP SEEDS DRY

To keep seeds fresh for an oncoming planting season, keep them in sealed containers with Silica gel packets in them. This prevents them from getting mouldy before use.

PROTECTS PHOTOGRAPHS

Drop a few sachets into a ziplock bag with your photos to make sure they don’t get damaged by moisture.

PROTECT PAPERS

Just like everything else on the list, preventing damage from moisture will mean keeping few silica sachets in the storage drawers!

PREVENT TRASH SMELL

Instead of tossing your silica gel packets away after buying a bag or a shoe, use them to keep the bottom of your trash can fresh!
