LIDL has added a £3.99 plant that stops mould in your home to its much-loved middle aisle.
Now is a great time to start thinking about cheap and effective mould hacks and it turns out a plant may be your best bet.
Now Lidl is selling a £3.99 plant that can help help banish mould from your home.
Calla Lilies Lidl £3.99
The famous retailer is selling Calla Lilies for just £3.99.
The advert reads: “Exotic and easy to care for plants.
Great for indoors or outdoors. Choose from a variety of colours.”
The plants are purifying and don’t need much sunlight to survive – making them a great choice for bathrooms without windows.
They feel most at home in environments similar to the South American rain forest so don’t need to be watered often.
Having a peace lily in your home can work similarly to a dehumidifier, sucking extra moisture out of the air – but they have the added bonus of being completely free to run.
Plus houseplants like peace lilies emit oxygen and help clarify pollutants from the air in your home.
One of the easiest ways to avoid getting mould is to open your windows every day to let fresh air in and keep doors between rooms open.
Ensuring that air continuously circulates through your home will reduce condensation so the mould cannot grow.
You should also open cupboard doors regularly to allow fresh air in to make sure there’s no mould growing inside.
Other things that can help include not leaving your clothes to dry on radiators, and always cooking with ventilation.
In extreme cases of damp and mould, it’s best to keep the windows open to allow airflow and consider using an anti-mould treatment to tackle the problem.
You can seek out an expert and if you are renting speak to your landlord about fixing the issue.
Meanwhile fans of the discount supermarket have gone wild for an everyday flask that boasts designer style at half the price.
