BOUNCE, BOUNCE, BOUNCE BACK

There is a lot of cool stuff Bounce dryer sheets can be used for… other than freshening up the smell of your laundry. Here is just a partial list of what people have suggested you can use Bounce dryer sheets for:

1. Bounce will chase ants away when you lay a sheet near them.
2. It takes the odor out of books and photo albums that don’t get opened too often.
3. It repels mosquitoes. Tie a sheet of Bounce through a belt loop when outdoors during mosquito season.
4. Eliminates static electricity from your television screen. Since Bounce is designed to help eliminate static cling, wipe your television screen with a used sheet of Bounce to keep dust from resettling.
5. Freshen the air in your home. Place an individual sheet of Bounce in a drawer or hang in the closet.
6. Prevent thread from tangling. Run a threaded needle through a sheet of Bounce before beginning to sew.
7. Prevent musty suitcases. Place an individual sheet of Bounce inside empty luggage before storing.
8. Freshen the air in your car. Place a sheet of Bounce under the front seat.
9. Clean baked-on foods from a cooking pan. Put a sheet in a pan, fill with water, let sit overnight, and sponge clean. The anti-static agent apparently weakens the bond between the food and the pan while the fabric softening agents soften the baked-on food.
10. Eliminate odors in wastebaskets. Place a sheet of Bounce at the bottom of the wastebasket.
11. Collect cat hair. Rubbing the area with a sheet of Bounce will magnetically attract all the loose hairs.
12. Eliminate static electricity from Venetian blinds. Wipe the blinds with a sheet of Bounce to prevent dust from resettling.
13. Wipe up sawdust from drilling or sand papering. A used sheet of Bounce will collect sawdust like a tack cloth.
14. Eliminate odors in dirty laundry. Place an individual sheet of Bounce at the bottom of a laundry bag or hamper.
15. Deodorize shoes or sneakers. Place a sheet of Bounce in your shoes or sneakers overnight so they will smell better in the AM.
16. Take the used sheet from your dryer and then wipe the lint trap with it. It cleans it perfectly.

***Tie a sheet to the outside handle of the front door of your house to ward off door-to-door salesmen.  I don’t know if it’ll work or not, but Bounce seems to be able to do so many other things, it might be worth a shot.
