It will not work if it's not covered or contained in something. **Q: What substances and chemicals are being used to absorb the ehtylene gas?** A: sodium permanganate in a volcanic ash called zeolite. It sounds like these oxidize the ethylene, breaking down the permanganate and turning the zeolite into manganese dioxide, a mineral compound that can be used as a fertilizer. So after these are spent, you can sprinkle the sachet contents on your plants. **Q: Does all the fruits or vegetables need to be fully exposed in drawers?** A: I keep bags of green beans, etc. in plastic bags in the refrigerator bins with these Bluapple balls, and they too last much longer with the balls in the bins. So I'd say no, veggies and/or fruit don't need to be exposed. **Q: Each packet is said to last for 3 months. So how do the 6 packets not used the first 3 months last for subsequent months?** A: The packets, when in use, last 3 months. The remaining packets should be kept in an airtight container, like the bag they came in. As long as they are kept in an airtight environment, their shelf life remains indefinite. ## Frequently Bought Together - Bluapple Ethylene Gas Absorber Classic Produce Saver 15-Month Bundle - Vegetable & Fruit Fresh Produce Storage Protector, Food Freshness Extender, Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Saver, USA-Made BPA-Free - Bluapple FreshMats - Refrigerator Bin Liners, Fridge Drawer Mats - Keeps Produce Fresh Longer, Prevents Bruising, Promotes Air Circulation - BPA-Free Polyurethane Foam - (4-Piece Set, 12"x15", Green) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/90593214-bluapple-produce-saver-ethylene-gas-absorber-fresh-fruit-and-vegetable](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/90593214-bluapple-produce-saver-ethylene-gas-absorber-fresh-fruit-and-vegetable) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-30*
