Simple and inexpensive ingredient is the answer to getting rid of condensation

Misty condensation season has begun as the months grow colder with the annoying phenomenon creeping up in homes across the UK.

Most UK households are greeted with condensation on windows each morning as they fling back the curtains, revealing water droplets.

Fortunately, an inexpensive ingredient has proven to be just the ticket. People are only now realising how effective it is at getting rid of condensation on homes’ windows.

A TikTok hack has gone viral and claims to be the ultimate solution for eliminating the pesky dampness.

The clever hack involves simply placing this ingredient in a bowl, placing it near the window and boom, fogged-up windows become a thing of the past.

The ingredient in question is bicarbonate of soda, which, according to TikTok, has been hailed as the ultimate condensation conqueror.

The video explains the hack in more detail and involves placing a bowl filled with the ingredients.

And that’s it, as the bicarbonate does its magic by absorbing all the dampness on the windows, further rendering the window crystal clear.

It may seem too good to be true, but the simple hack actually works. The bicarbonate soda interacts with the humidity in a person’s home.

This means that you will always have a home with crystal-clear windows, and this online hack also works as a dehumidifier.

High humidity in a house can be caused by many things, but the biggest reason is poor ventilation which not only affects a person’s sleep.

High-humidity homes, over time, could cause allergies, respiratory illnesses and even an elevated risk of heart disease.

This 59p item helps absorb moisture in a home, providing no condensation on the windows, all while dehumidifying your home and reducing your health risks.

All that is required is placing bicarbonate soda in a bowl with a thin cloth covering it and then placing it in the affected areas with the 59p item left to do its thing.

The simple yet effective tip has caused a stir across the UK as the pesky condensation has plagued many for years.

The popular hack has caused a stir of reactions from individuals praising its simplicity.

Comments even likened the hack to dehumidifier plastic tubs which are common in Spain and are “balls that soak up the water, so you can change every month.”
