For some reason, when it comes to the need to increase the humidity level at home, only one thought comes to mind - buying a humidifier.

However, there are many more ways to achieve what you want, and one of them is to use hydrogel, or Orbeez balls.

If someone is not yet familiar with such a material, then perhaps it is worth telling that such gel balls have the ability to absorb a large amount of liquid.

The numbers speak for themselves: 10 g of hydrogel can absorb up to 2 liters of water.

Therefore, to ensure sufficient humidity levels, you will need to fill bowls with orbeez and place them throughout your home.

The only condition: do not forget to wash the containers from time to time so that mold does not form in them.

If the required material is not available, you can always use a regular spray bottle, which should be filled with water and sprayed around the apartment 2-3 times a day.

Earlier we shared another method that will allow you to forget about dry air in your apartment.
