If you live in a house that’s prone to damp, the problem can get worse over the colder months, especially if it’s not tackled.
A dehumidifier can help, but you don’t have to splurge to buy one – Amazon has slashed the set of 12 Nyxi dehumidifiers from £13.49 to £11.46, working out at 89p each.

Condensation on windows might be a common occurrence in the autumn and winter, but it can lead to problems.
Dehumidifiers are a solution that many households turn to for the latter part of the year.
They work by taking moisture from the air, which soaks into the beads and collects as water at the bottom.
Each one can hold up to 500ml, lasting 3-5 weeks depending how much moisture there is, but with 12 replacements, it could end up as an entire year’s supply.
Thanks to the small size, each one can fit in any area, which can prove difficult with a large dehumidifier.
This means you could place them on windowsills to collect condensation, or in wardrobes to ensure clothes don’t get damp or mouldy.
Utility rooms and bathrooms naturally get super damp, so these are also good places to use the dehumidifiers to reduce humidity.
If left alone, damp can progress and cause damage to walls and also lead to mould, which creates an unhealthy living environment.
The affordable Amazon buy has gained thousands of reviews, with shoppers praising how affordable and effective the dehumidifiers are.
One shopper said: ‘’I bought these dehumidifiers as I live in a ground-floor flat, and during the wet weather I cannot hang out my laundry, so I have to hand it on a clothes horse next to the radiators.
‘’As we all know this will cause dampness, so these dehumidifiers are ideal – they suck up all the moisture in the air and store it in the lower section.
‘’After about 3 months I can throw them away, and replace them with new ones, helping me keep my flat free from mould and dampness.’’
Another shopper commented: ‘’I find these to be quite useful for small rooms.
‘’I live in Devon and near the sea which means I have double the amount of humidity than other places.
‘’High electric bill prevented me from using a dehumidifier so this is the next best thing.
‘’They usually last about 6-8 weeks in my house.’’
A third shopper added: ”This product is brilliant for keeping condensation away from windows in the cold months.”
