AS temperatures continue to drop, condensation might start forming on your windows.

Condensation forms when moist air comes into contact with a cold surface.
It could create mould in the house and cause health issues in the future.
That’s why you need to act fast if you notice water droplets on your window.
Aldi is currently selling a budget-friendly gadget that can prevent this problem.
Unibond Aero 360° Refill will be hitting the stores on September 11 for only £5.49.
They do not only absorb the extra moisture from the air but also prevent unpleasant smells.
Each refill can last up to three months, costing less than a pound per month for use.
The pack comes with two refills tabs in a neutral scent.
It also offers a “wave-shaped surface” to enhance air exposure.
The ultra-absorbing active crystals prevent the damp, saving you from turning on heating and splurging on bills.
If you already have a Unibond Aero Absorber, then it is the perfect time to stock up on refills.
For those who still need the device, you can find it in Tesco retailing for only £16.

Cheap condensation hacks
1. Use Salt or Cat Litter
– Place bowls of salt or silica-based cat litter in areas prone to dampness. These materials are excellent at absorbing moisture from the air.
2. DIY Dehumidifier
– Create a simple dehumidifier using a plastic container with a lid. Punch holes in the lid, fill the container with silica gel or activated charcoal, and place it in humid areas.
3. Ventilate When Cooking and Showering
– Open windows or use extractor fans when cooking or showering to let moisture escape. Even a small gap can make a significant difference.
4. Wipe Down Windows
– Regularly wipe down windows and other cold surfaces with a dry cloth to remove condensation. This prevents moisture from accumulating and causing mould.
5. Use Houseplants
– Certain houseplants, like peace lilies and spider plants, can help absorb moisture from the air. They also improve indoor air quality.
6. Keep Lids on Pots
– When cooking, keep lids on pots and pans to reduce the amount of steam released into the air.
7. Dry Clothes Outside
– Whenever possible, dry clothes outside or in a well-ventilated area instead of using indoor drying racks.
8. Open Curtains and Blinds
– During the day, open curtains and blinds to allow sunlight to warm up windows and reduce condensation. Sunlight also helps to reduce mould growth.
9. Use Towels Wisely
– Keep towels and other fabrics away from walls and windows to prevent them from absorbing moisture and becoming damp.
10. Seal Cracks and Gaps
– Use inexpensive weatherstripping or caulk to seal any cracks or gaps around windows and doors. This helps to keep cold air out and warm air in, reducing condensation.
