Do these little bags need to be "recharged". I have some silica gel bought
to dry flowers. Their directions say to put the product in a low temp oven
to "recharge" it after so many uses. Do you think it's the same case with
these little packs?

Silent Doug plops the little dessicant packs in his letterbox
restorations (Jacobsburg, Pulpit Rock and Pinnacle).

My experience using silica crystals as kitty litter indicates that
they definitly have a limit to how much moisture they can absorb. If
all they've absorbed is water, I suppose they could be "recharged".
I don't think I'll try it with the stuff in the cat box, though!
