TikTok star Mark Hoyle has come up with an 'epic hack' to help him get to sleep at night in the hot weather - using a £15 item from B&M that's supposed to be for dogs.
The internet sensation, better known as 'LadBaby', shared his 'genius' idea for keeping cool in a TikTok video shared by the bargain retailer. Pulling up at a B&M store with his wife Roxanne, the Tiktoker says: "I'll be back with an epic hack".
After securing the goods and returning home, Mark prepares to reveal his nifty bedroom hack as he welcomes his wife "to the chill max 3000". He then pulls back the duvet on the bed to reveal two blue cooling mats - which are more commonly used by pets.

Giving a demonstration as he climbs into bed, he says: "You put them in the bed like this. You get in like this..." His confused wife asks: "What is it? It looks like a pool float!" Revealing the box it came in, Mark explains: "It's made for dogs".
But after trying it out for herself, Roxanne admits: "Oh my god, it's colder!" She tells her husband: "This does work."
Fans rushed to the comments to give their verdict on the trick. @magdalenadunat0 said: "I had mats for dog too I put them under my legs was nice hot weather", while @shannelpowell3 admitted: "That's an amazing idea".
@molllie_harrel said: "I've done it for yrs and its the best thing ever."
On the B&M website, the description of the £15 'Pet Cooling Crate Mat' reads: "Give your beloved pet somewhere comfortable and cool to sit in warm weather. This Pet Cooling Crate Mat is safe, requires no electricity or water, and is non-toxic."
Boiling Brits are after all the tips on keeping cool they can get as temperatures start to soar across the UK. Temperatures are expected to exceed 37C next week, with the Met Office issuing its first-ever red warning for extreme heat.
