What to do if the humidity at home is too high

You can buy some dehumidifiers at home to reduce the humidity. Take out your quilt and pillow often to dry in the sun, this natural disinfectant is particularly effective. Pay attention to ventilation at ordinary times so that the humidity in your home can be similar to that outside. There are many ways to dehumidify your home. Choose the method that suits your home. If you have enough money, you can buy an air purifier, and the air quality will generally be within a comfortable range.

Method 1: Prevention first

The best way to prevent moisture and dehumidification is prevention. Generally speaking, home accessories such as quilts, pillows, and fabric sofa covers should be placed in the sun for a few hours after being used continuously for about a month. Because sunlight is the most environmentally friendly and effective disinfectant, it not only makes the quilt fluffy and soft, but also after being dried in the sun, the quilt will smell full of the warm fragrance of the sun, which is sure to bring a good night's sleep.

Method 2: Close windows in the morning and evening

When the humid "return of the south wind" hits, everyone must remember to close the windows at home, especially the south and southeast windows, to prevent the moisture lurking outside from having any chance to sneak in. The most important time for moisture prevention is every morning and evening. The air humidity during these two periods is higher than at noon. If the doors and windows are not closed in time, water vapor will seriously penetrate into every corner of the home. In addition, if you feel that the closed doors and windows prevent indoor air from circulating, it is recommended that you open the windows for a short time at noon for ventilation.

Method 3: Instrumental method

Moisture-proof and dehumidification can also use technological means to mobilize all dehumidifying appliances in the home to reduce indoor air humidity. Nowadays, most air conditioners used in households have dehumidification functions. However, using air conditioning to adjust indoor air humidity is a slow process, usually taking two or three hours, and will make people indoors feel cold. If you are not satisfied with the dehumidification effect of the air conditioner, you may wish to go to the mall to buy a special dehumidifier, which will be effective faster but consumes relatively more electricity. In addition, the fan heaters that people use to keep warm in winter can also alleviate the indoor humidity to a certain extent, but the effective radiation range of the fan heater is small and cannot achieve an immediate dehumidification effect.

Method 4: Hanging desiccant

Nowadays, there are many desiccants in supermarkets that are specifically used for moisture prevention and dehumidification. The most common types are dehumidifying boxes and dehumidifying bags. Many moisture-absorbing boxes have various scents, such as lemon, lavender, sweet orange, etc., which can make the home full of fragrance. They are suitable for large spaces in daily life such as living rooms, rooms, bathrooms and kitchens. After using it for a period of time, you can take out the material in the moisture absorption box, buy bulk desiccant and put it in the box for reuse. In addition, dehumidification bags made of absorbent resin and charcoal are more suitable for placement in smaller spaces. For example, in enclosed spaces such as wardrobes and shoe cabinets, you can hang a dehumidification bag to expel moisture. In addition, making your own desiccant is also quite interesting. Put an appropriate amount of lime in a small cloth bag, tie it into a small bag and place it in various corners of the room. Lime itself has the function of absorbing moisture and can also reduce the humidity in the room.

Method 5: Moisture-proof cabinet furniture

Recently, moisture-proof cabinet furniture has appeared on the market. Moisture-proof shoe cabinets can store leather shoes, sports shoes, casual shoes, insoles, etc.; moisture-proof wardrobes can store leather goods, leather clothes, quilts, baby products, etc.; moisture-proof food cabinets can store high-end medicinal materials (such as Cordyceps sinensis) and dry goods; moisture-proof multi-purpose cabinets can store optical equipment (such as cameras, cameras, lenses), digital products (such as memory cards, CDs) and precious calligraphy and paintings, stamps, photo albums, etc. Humidity control: The humidity can be set by yourself from 25-60%RH, and the cabinet reaches a constant humidity. The dehumidification is fully automatic, safe, environmentally friendly and noiseless. In addition to removing moisture, the shoe cabinet can also sterilize, disinfect, and deodorize. The product adopts "condensation moisture-proof and dehumidification" technology. The principle of this technology is to absorb the water vapor in the cabinet through a semiconductor condensation device and condense it into liquid for discharge, and then evaporate it naturally into the air outside the cabinet.

Home moisture proofing:

1. Buy 10-20 kilograms of lime, put it in a wooden box or cardboard box, and place it under the wardrobe or in the corner of the room. Cover it when the weather is not humid, and open the lid when the weather is humid. Do not open large windows as the lime absorbs moisture and the room will be dry and pleasant.

2. Fry the sugar in a pan. Then put it in a paper bag and place it in a humid place to let it absorb moisture. Or you can buy lime to absorb moisture as mentioned above.

3. Open windows frequently to ventilate the room. You should often hang your underwear and pants in the sun to kill bacteria and maintain health.

4. The wardrobes sold on the market are already equipped with ultraviolet disinfection lamps. You might as well buy an ultraviolet disinfection lamp and disinfect them regularly.
