How to get rid of moisture in a car: a life-saving way
Excessive humidity in a car is not only uncomfortable but also dangerous, as it can lead to mold and mildew. Condensation occurs when the temperature inside a car differs significantly from the temperature outside.
Many factors can cause moisture to appear – from spilled liquids in the cabin to windows that are not fully closed and raindrops that have penetrated. Hot air in the cabin, in contact with moisture, cools and condenses, and then forms water vapor – resulting in windshield fogging. Sante Plus has published life-saving ways to help get rid of excess moisture in the car.
Salt absorbs moisture well
Affordable and cheap ingredients will come in handy in the fight against constant window fogging. Experts advise to always keep salt in the car. It is better to buy an airtight plastic container so that the salt does not get wet and crumble.
Some drivers have a habit of pouring salt into linen bags (sometimes replaced with socks) and tying them near the car windows.
Life hack with cat litter
You will need
- a sock
- adhesive tape
- cat litter
Pour cat litter into an old sock. The main thing is to carefully seal the sock so that the litter does not fall out. This life hack will help absorb excess moisture quickly and efficiently.
Experts also advise adding small sachets of silica, which is known to fight humidity in cars.
Use baking soda
If you don't have a dehumidifier, you can rely on the performance of baking soda to easily remove excess moisture. In addition to all the cleaning and deodorizing properties, baking soda is also a very effective natural moisture absorber.
Pour some baking soda into a small box or cup and place it near the window. Then close all the windows and doors. After a while, the soda will absorb moisture and neutralize unpleasant odors.
