Open windows while in the shower/bath or while cooking.

Condensation is a build up of moisture, it can cause damp problems.

If it's really bad a de-humidifier is a good purchase. Also keeping the heating on can help with it too.

yy to dehumidifier. We have one that we put on every morning and it really helps. We also wipe condensation off windows every day. A tumble drier would help too.

wipe up each morning, squeeze cloth out over sink and leave it to dry OUTSIDE.

heat house, ventilate for a few minutes if you are off out to work.

normal showers are five minutes, not 20. Washing should not be dried on radiators. Lids on pans.

open bedroom windows every morning after throwing off the duvet to air the bed. Close them after breakfast, when the fairies you have tidied the room and made the bed.
