1 gram of silica gel/desiccant = 1 litre of space
Just imagine for your container, how many litres of water would it take to fill it up? If you think 1 litre, then our 1 gram size would be sufficient. If you think maybe 5 litres, then you would need the 5 gram size. As simple as that.
Open the main seal to activate the silica gels/desiccants, place them directly into the space that you would like to dehumidify. That is it!
USEFUL EXAMPLES:
Storage for your bags, shoes and clothes.
Have bags, shoes or clothes for storage? Place together with some silica gel packets to prevent your clothing/shoes from moulding/turning yellow. Have some items you hardly use and want to keep for long term storage? For greater effect, seal them in a plastic bag and place one packet of silica gel inside, you can ensure they will still look brand new after a year.
Place with your photos and albums.
Keep silica gel packs where ever you store physical copies of your photos and albums to prevent damage due to mold and discoloration.
