Costing just £4.99, the budget supermarket has released a pack of thermometers and hygrometers.

The set of three items is meant to be used to monitor indoor climate so you can prevent mould taking hold.

The hygrometer takes a measurement of the indoor humidity and it also comes with a display for comfort level.

Three steps are shown on the screen indicated by a smiley face, which are dry, comfortable and high humidity.

This is measured in percentages from 10% all the way to 99% with a temperature range of -10°C to 50°C.

How easy is it to use?

Lidl has advertised the product as being very easy and convenient to use, perfect for your wet washing.

The gadget can be mounted on a wall or it can be freestanding in any utility room.

There is also a magnetic attachment and a foldable stand for extra benefit and ease.

Batteries and instructions are included with the product which also has a three-year warranty period.

Cheaper than Screwfix

In comparison, Screwfix has released its own version at a much higher price point.

At a price of £16.99, a gadget from brand Forge Steel measures temperatures in both Celsius and Fahrenheit.

It is advertised as providing an accurate and rapid response and is pocket sized.

The easy-to-read digital display screen will display the temperature and humidity levels.

It does have the same temperature range of -10 to 50°C but it has a smaller humidity range of 20-99%
