Brush your pet’s hair

If you ask anyone with a furry friend, whether it’s a cat, a dog, or a rabbit, they will tell you the same thing: excessive shedding can be a real pain! But don’t worry, you’re not doomed to live like this!

If you notice clumps of unshed hair in your home, just try one of this creative dryer sheet uses: run a dryer sheet over your pet before brushing that furry coat, and you will have a lot of hair to clean up!

Line your garbage to rid it of smells

If the garbage can you have in your home is still keeping a lingering scent, then line it with a dryer sheet and you might get rid of it! As in the other examples, these dryer sheets are very good when it comes to absorbing odors and leaks.

Besides that, you can clean your garbage can with them, but make sure you moist them a bit with your favorite cleaning product that will take that dirt and stains away! It seems that for any item in your home that might have the slightest smell, there is one pack of dryer sheets that will fix it!

    I HAVE FOUND THAT IF YOU PLACE A DRYER SHEET WHERE MICE USUALLY COME INTO YOUR HOUSE—THEY STAY AWAY. TRY IT. IT WORKS.

    I keep my luggage fresh between trips by throwing a couple of dryer sheets on them. I also place them on tennis shoes that I bring in my carry on, to keep everything else fresh.
