Although in the era of 4.0 technology, the habit of keeping photos in albums is still loved by many families. However, to be able to store photos for a long time over the years, it is necessary to pay attention to some points if we do not want the album to be damaged, affecting the quality of the photo album.
Moisture
Unable to control the humidity in the room - the place to store photo albums - is one of the important reasons why photo albums are prone to mold. This will lead to poor quality, stained or damaged photos.
To avoid the above phenomena, housewives need to ensure the storage of photo books in dry places. You can place a dehumidifier (large) next to the drawer or directly in the photo album or dry it in light sunlight every few months to keep the album dry, especially in humid weather.
Light and temperature
In addition to controlling the humidity in the room, housewives also need to pay attention to controlling the light and temperature from the outside environment. Because if the album is exposed to the heat a lot, it will directly affect the color of the photo. According to some experiences, you should choose a place to store photo albums in a cool, clean place.
The advice for housewives is to set aside a closet to store family albums. This also avoids dirt sticking to the album. If you know how to preserve the scenery properly, the photo album will maintain a fairly long life, sometimes up to 15 - 20 years depending on the quality of the photo printing paper.
Ants
Insects are also one of the main causes of rapid photo album damage. In particular, paper-eating earthworms are considered the number 1 enemy of the photo album.
To limit the above situation, housewives need to check and clean the photo album storage area regularly to ensure it is not attacked by termites. If there are signs of termites, you should quickly carry out cleaning work, use specialized pesticides or find a cleaner place to store photo albums.
