are all silica gel packets reuseable? and, if they aren’t specifically labelled ‘color indicating’, how can you tell when they’re saturated? Also, do you leave them in their packets for recharging in an oven or microwave, or do you take the beads out of the packets? In advance, many thanks.

Just put it in the oven in with color changing silica gel beads you have, that’s what I do. When the all the color changing ones have changed color, all of the gel will be good, or at least good enough. Just be aware that some silica gel packets have a sandy material in them that is hard to move around
