Bounce Dryer Sheets: Uses around the house
Bounce Dryer Sheets…not just for your laundry anymore!
Did you take the Bounce quiz? Are you a sheets or bar person? Even if you are a bar person, you should also grab some sheets. Did you know you can use them around the house too?
I asked my followers on Facebook for their ideas, here are a few…
- Laurie Brewer Dusting
- Katie ‘Hendricks’ Derenne use them when we winterize our camper, it keeps the mice away
- Laura Craig-Mahoney i use them as mosquito repellent..rub them on you arms legs neck ect and no bites!
- Samantha Phillips in the winter when the air is dry and i have static in my hair, running a used dryer sheet over my hair usually does the trick!
- Aubrey Fiore Hierholzer I keep them in shoes to kill bad foot odors in my closet. Works well under the seats of cars too.
- Jamie Kessler put a couple in the bottoms of garbage cans
And a couple ideas from Twitter followers…
- AKCahoon For insect repellent, alternate for moth balls, and in all our hand me down/used dresser drawers.
- Momofthreeunder someone once showed me how it helps loosen lasagna baked into the dish.
I also recently discovered a new website that you may like…Cozi…are you familiar with it? I met the Social Media Direction, Carol at Blissdom. There are TONS of great ideas like these uses for dryer sheets…
-
Use old (i.e. used) dryer sheets to help get scum off of shower doors. You get to recycle the dryer sheet & it’s easier than just scrubbing

Instead of throwing away the dryer sheets after I have used them in the dryer, I save them to do quick clean up around the bathroom. A quick swipe with it works great as a lint and hair catcher. It’s textured surface shines the faucets and knobs real well. Slightly wet them and they work like a charm to clean a wash basin too.

After every other shower my hubby and I reuse used dryer sheets to quickly wipe down all transparent, metal or mirror surfaces, while they are still wet with steam.
Disclaimer: Sadly, I did not receive Bounce for a year. Bounce provided me with a Blissdom conference ticket and hotel room, they did not compensate me in any other way. All opinions are all my own.
Clean window screens with bounce sheets — dusts them, removes bugs and fluff from outside. Clean as a whistle!

One thing I do to make dryer sheets go farther is to tear them half–I find a half sheet is plenty to soften and get rid of static in most loads, except in really dry winter weather. I tried the bounce bar, it softened fine, but didn’t seem to work as well on static as half of a regular sheet, so I’m definitely a “sheet” gal, myself!
