5 Unique Ways to Use Dryer Sheets around Your Home

You might think that the only use for those dryer sheets is to eliminate static cling and make your clothing, sheets and towels smell amazing.  However, there are 5 other ways you can use them to clean around your home.  In addition to your laundry area, keep a box of dryer sheets under your kitchen sink. 

1.    Get Rid of Baked-On Food – Place the dryer sheet in the dish with the baked on food, fill with cold water and soak overnight.  The softener in the fabric will break down the food particles, making it easier to clean in the morning. 

2.    Use as a Mosquito Repellent – Put a dryer sheet in your pockets or tie around  our belt loop and it keeps the bugs away.

3.    Deodorize your home – Tuck dryer sheets into stinky shoes, luggage, camping gear, gym bags, closets, basements and attics.  It will help eliminate those musty smells.

4.    Clean up soap scum – Clean glass shower doors by wiping with a damp dryer sheet.
