The expert said: “As winter rolls in, so does the annoying problem of window condensation.

“It’s not just a pain to look at; left alone, it can lead to mould and all sorts of mess.

“Window experts at Plan-it Windows have shared their thoughts.”

He added: “Certain plants, like peace lilies and Boston ferns, naturally absorb moisture.

“These plants not only aid in controlling humidity but also add an aesthetic touch to your home.

“We will have done similar stories over winter, so use those to pad it out a bit.”

It came after another expert issued a warning concerning the dos and don’ts of winter plants – including those that could harm your pets.

According to Clear It Waste, up to 10% of dogs, cats and other animals have fallen ill after eating plants in the home, with 43 percent of them having to be rushed for vet care.

Now, in a bid to get that number down, they’ve said all the toxic plants that could result in an emergency for your pet.

First up, they explained why holly – although it looks very pretty over the festive period – should be one to be wary of. 

After pointing out that it’s the red berry of the plant that can lead to issues, Clear It Waste said: “The berries contain a chemical called theobromine, the same chemical compound found in chocolate, which is highly toxic for dogs and cats.

“It often causes vomiting, diarrhoea, high blood pressure and in severe cases, even death.“

Holly leaves also contain theobromine, though, in a much smaller dose, consumption is still strongly discouraged

They added: “Holly, whilst beautiful, is one houseplant to be wary of this winter.”
