DIY approaches to tackle winter home humidity and prevent mold growth

Best ways to remove water from windows

You don’t have to spend a fortune to tackle humidity. A common kitchen item like dish soap can be very effective in removing water droplets from windows. Simply apply a small amount of it onto a cloth and wipe the areas where the water accumulates. This will not only remove the water droplets but also protect the window surfaces from further water settlement.

Household items like baking soda or vinegar also work wonders in reducing humidity. They’re inexpensive anti-condensation agents. Both products also exhibit cleaning and anti-fungal properties – perfect for curbing the growth of mold in damp conditions. Condensing water vapor on the panes can be cleared quickly using unusual solutions like toothpaste or shaving foam, both of which can prevent excess humidity from settling on glass surfaces.
