Mould and condensation can be a real concern at this time of year, given the imminent chill in the air, but houseplants are a good way to keep them at bay.
Houseplants are not only a good accessory for any home, but they can be incredibly useful in the colder months to remove the humidity in the room and avoid mould.
However, if left untreated, moisture and humidity can turn to condensation and black mould. There are many ways to stop condensation from turning into mould, but one unusual way is by keeping certain houseplants, which can be 'natural dehumidifiers'. English Ivy An English ivy plant is thought to be one of the best de-humidifying plants in the game, as it is not only cheap but is very good to have in your house for anyone who suffers from allergies.
Experts added: "English ivy is another common vine that’s easy to care for and is one of the best dehumidifying plants, making it a good choice for those who are just starting out with house plants." The experts at Jay Scott said: "Aloe vera plants require very little attention, making them perfect low-maintenance companions–simply place them somewhere sunny and be sure to water them every few weeks!"
