FED UP of waking up in the morning to see your windows covered in water droplets?<\/strong><\/p>\n A woman has revealed an easy method to put a stop to condensation and mould using an everyday ingredient from her kitchen cupboard.<\/p>\n Olivia shared the easy hack on social media revealing the simple trick can stop mould from building up and prevent condensation on windows.<\/p>\n In the clip, she filled a small container with fine-grain or regular table salt.<\/p>\n Olivia then placed the small tub of salt on her windowsill – adding that this would suck up excess moisture.<\/p>\n Condensation forms when cold surfaces meet humid air, resulting in water droplets being formed. <\/p>\n "Put an open container of salt wherever needed and it traps and absorbs the moisture," she explained.<\/p>\n Olivia isn't the first person to recommend the hack on TikTok.<\/p>\n Plenty of people have vouched for the ingenious tip, Nazia recommended the hack last year and decided to film her results.<\/p>\n In the video, Nazia placed a bowl of salt under her window to see if it would prevent condensation from the snow outside.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n To her surprise, no condensation formed.<\/p>\n You can buy 750g of table salt for \u00a31.50 from Tesco, meaning the hack will cost you just 50p if you use a third of the salt for each windowsill.<\/p>\n Another cleaning whizz has found a genius way to keep condensation at bay using one household favourite – Fairy washing-up liquid.<\/p>\n After you've wiped the windows down with the popular kitchen staple, condensation should soon be a problem of the past.<\/p>\n Well, according to\u00a0The Express, many\u00a0science\u00a0websites including The Naked Scientists have shared the same explanation.<\/p>\n "The waxy and alkaline textures of the soap results stop water molecules from sticking to the glass," the findings suggest.<\/p>\n "As the\u00a0steam\u00a0has no smooth surface to latch onto, it is unable to form a fog on the mirrors and windows in your\u00a0homes\u00a0covered in soap.<\/p>\n "Instead, these droplets conglomerate and form in other parts of the room, including sports and skylights, provided that the conditions are right."<\/p>\n Fabulous will pay for your exclusive stories.
