AT this time of year, condensation around the house is almost a given.
And if you’re trying to dry laundry inside too, you’re just causing even more moisture – which then leads to mould.
However, one woman has insisted she’s turned things around in her house by stocking up on hanging dehumidifiers.
In a video on TikTok, she insisted people would “regret” not listening to her recommendation, as she showed her moisture-covered windows.
“Windows that look like this means there’s too much moisture in the air, which causes mould to develop in our homes,” she said.
“So I’m going to show you something that’s going to stop that from happening.
“These dehumidifier bags are an absolute godsend, because they trap the moisture in the air in those little white particles and then store it in that bag here.”
She then showed the dehumidifier hanging from her clothes horse – full of water.
“You can see how much water it’s collected from these clothes that are drying,” she said.
And as an added bonus, the hangers can “literally go anywhere” – from your curtain rails to your window handles.
“I even put one in my car!” she added in the video caption.
The dehumidifiers won’t set you back too much either, as you can get a pack of 12 for £12.99 – making them just £1.08 each.

“Recommend – 100% work,” another added.
“They work brilliantly!” a third agreed.
“I’ve ben using these for a long time – great item,” someone else said.
“I put them in the wardrobe and it’s surprising how much water it still collects in there,” another commented.
However, one person wrote: “It will drain your pocket when its time to buy refills constantly.
“Better to invest in a proper dehumidifier.”
“Not everyone can afford the electric ones,” the woman hit back.

“I use them in my wardrobes, even with the dehumidifier going these bags always fill up.”
As someone else suggested: “Opening windows more definitely helps.
“My window’s rarely closed and I never get condensation or mould!”
