But make sure there is a layer between the packet and what you are trying to preserve so the moisture trapped in the silica doesn't make a nice square mark on your calculators. I wrap books in paper (even newspaper is ok) and box them.

Most long term damage seems to be from moisture and dust.

I am fortunate to live in a dry climate, so I probably won't need to use dessicant. But thank you for the excellent tip about wrapping manuals in paper. I have not been doing this, but will definitely do so for my reorganization.
