Battling window condensation this winter? So was I, until I found a couple of hacks to test out! Living on the ground floor in London, my windows were weeping every morning. With no budget or space for a dehumidifier, I turned to popular DIY tricks.


First up was the cat litter method – pop some in a sock, tie it up, and place it on the windowsill. Sounds simple, right? Well, after two days, my windows were still dripping with condensation. The litter was as dry as a bone and left me with nothing but disappointment and cold, damp air.

Feeling defeated, I swapped the cat litter for a bowl of coarse salt. Let me tell you, I woke up to a miracle! The windows were clear, no more crying glass! Even the living room window showed impressive results with just a few frosty spots. It seems the salt absorbed all the moisture like magic.
Now, I know salt isn’t a long-term fix, but when it spares me from splurging on expensive gadgets, I’ll take it! If you’re looking for a quick and effective way to tackle condensation, give the salt method a whirl. You might just be as amazed as I was!
