THE temperatures are dropping and the harsh winter season has arrived which for millions means only one thing - waking up to dripping wet condensation on their windows. A common annoyance for a number of people around the world, condensation is water droplets that form on a window when moist air comes into contact with a cold surface.

Not only can this make for an unsightly mess, but these water droplets can also lead to the growth of mould - which, in some cases, can be fatal. Amongst those most vulnerable are newborns, young kids, elderly, as well as those with respiratory issues, allergies and asthma.

With the cold weather now in full force, thousands of desperate Brits have been taking to social media to seek advice and tips on how to deal with the issue. One of them was also Lyndsey Daniels, a member of the popular DIY On a Budget Official page on Facebook.
