Mold is not only unsightly, but it can also pose a risk to our health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Itchy eyes and nasal congestion are only among the milder symptoms of mold exposure. Fortunately, there are solutions that allow us to prevent and avoid the problem of excess humidity in the home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Below we list plants that are able to absorb air moisture through their leaves, to transport it to their roots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Mint<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This famous aromatic plant is capable of absorbing humidity from the environment. It grows well in humid environments and is ideal for kitchens or bathrooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It grows all year round and is also useful in the kitchen, for the preparation of both dishes and herbal teas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Orchids<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These wonderful plants are able to reduce the humidity in the air of the house. Their roots are not found in the soil, and therefore absorb the water present in the air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, some have pseudobulbs that conserve water and help them survive droughts better. They look great in the bathroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Trunk of happiness<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This plant produces white and very fragrant flowers. It can reach a considerable height.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the main properties of this plant is its ability to purify the air in the home, while also absorbing moisture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Palm trees<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An excellent option for keeping humidity and mold levels under control, especially in bathrooms. They are able to absorb moisture through their leaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is suggested to choose areca, bamboo or date palm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. English Ivy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This climbing plant is very easy to care for. Its natural habitat is humid and temperate woods, and for this reason it is suggested to put it in the most humid rooms of the house, such as bathrooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is also perfect to hang on the kitchen sink or near a window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Phalangium<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A plant that is very effective in absorbing moisture in the environment. It also eliminates toxins in the air in your home, such as formaldehyde and xylene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It needs indirect light and survives periods of drought. In summer, the frequency of watering must be increased.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Spathiphyllum<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This tropical plant can&#8217;t stand frost and drafts, making it a wonderful indoor plant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Water it once a week and it is perfect for dimly lit bathrooms or kitchens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Tillandsia<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like all epiphytic plants, it absorbs moisture from the air because it does not take root in the soil, from which other plants take nutrients and water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It grows in rainy areas and its leaves are covered with cells that are able to quickly absorb the water that accumulates on them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Boston Fern<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is a well-known and appreciated houseplant, often grown in hanging pots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It thrives in humid and shady places, but needs some indirect light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. Calantee<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many well-known houseplants with wonderful decorative properties belong to this family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They need a lot of moisture to mimic their natural habitat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Share article<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Important: This website does not give medical advice, nor does it suggest the use of techniques as a form of treatment for physical problems, for which medical advice is required.
