Mould and mildew occur when there is a large level of moisture in the air in the home.

The issue is usually worse in humid rooms, like your bathroom, which can steam up after a hot shower. 

The problem can cause unappealing patches to appear on your walls, and could even affect your health.

But shoppers have been excited to spot a spray designed to tackle it in Home Bargains and going for cheap.

I tried everything to tackle mould - finally a Home Bargains buy shifted it
I'm a DIY pro and here's a cheap way to keep your home warmer

The HG Mould Remover Spray is currently half price at the checkout.

Shoppers can grab it for £2.99, rather than its usual price of £7 – so that’s a £4.01 saving.

Taking to HotUKDeals, one customer wrote: “Bought this today. Brilliant stuff!”

And another shopper said: “Excellent for the job but really strong stuff. Make sure you have ventilation in the room/area.”

The £2.99 price tag is the cheapest we spotted it, but it always pays to shop around to get the best price.

We found it for £6.25 at Wilko and £5.75 at Tesco.

How can I avoid mould in my home?

We tested out some top hacks for tackling mould to see how effective they are.

Dehumidifiers are a good idea to keep by windows to prevent condensation from collecting – shoppers have even spotted one that costs £50 from Argos.

And they don’t cost much to run either – according to experts at Uswitch, dehumidifiers normally use 185W – so they usually cost about 6p an hour to run.

There’s also the trick of placing salt in a bowl and hoping it catches mould – our reporter Harriet Cooke said it worked quite well.

And, costing £1.70 for 500g from Tesco, salt isn’t too expensive to buy either.

You can read a full list of mould prevention hacks and our verdict in our test here.
