Condensation occurs when warm, moist air comes into contact with a cold surface, causing the water vapor in the air to condense into liquid water.

This can then lead to mold growth on walls and ceilings, causing all kinds of mold to develop health problems, including asthma and skin rash.

It can also cause damage to your home and furniture, so your best bet is to find the source of the problem and fix it.

One simple thing you can do to remove condensation is open your windows, especially when you are showering.

George Hollandbathroom expert Victorian sanitary waresaid, “Opening windows in your bathroom is an easy way to keep your bathroom from fogging up because the steam just flows right out the window.”

If you have two windows on opposite sides of your home, you should open them at the same time to allow for cross ventilation.

However, with the icy temperatures we are currently experiencing in the UK, this is not always ideal.

If you don’t like opening windows, you can use white vinegar to prevent condensation.

Make a mixture of half vinegar and half water and apply it to your windows with a cloth,

Then wipe it off to make sure no streaks remain.

White vinegar is super cheap and can be picked up from B&M for just 79p.

George said: “This should work for just under a week and is one of the cheapest options.

However, it can leave a scent for about an hour after application, so you may want to squeeze some lemons or limes into the mixture to create a Nice aroma.”

The expert also recommended covering pans while cooking to prevent the steam from fogging up the windows.

And when you shower or cook, always use an extractor hood, if you have one.

Drying clothes indoors can also lead to condensation. So it’s a good idea to dry them outside, or if it rains, buy a dehumidifier that sucks moisture from the air.
