Unexpected uses of desiccant bags

We often throw away desiccant packets when we buy a new product, but they can be a lifesaver if your items happen to get wet or moldy.

According toIFL ScienceThese desiccant packets contain small, spherical silicon dioxide particles that can absorb moisture from the surrounding environment by allowing water molecules to adhere to their surfaces during the absorption process. In doing so, they help protect other objects from dampness and prevent mold growth.

Some uses for desiccant packets include preventing mold in gym bags, rescuing waterlogged phones, or placing them behind car windshields to prevent fogging on the mirrors.
