they are used to absorb moisture in the air. i leave them inside my car when i store it for the winter to keep the air dry inside and fresh.

I used the large ones from Costco in my 68 SS for a long time. They even made it smell good. I dont remember the name, but it was a box of 6 large hanger style bags with the silica stuff on one side and a bladder on the other to hold the water. Man, those things work and with the plastic hanger on there I did two at a time. Good luck bro........

They are not a bulk item and yea, damp-rid makes them. They contain as much silica in each bag as those little buckets in previous post.Like I said 6 per box and they don't spill.
