Deodorize old books
Some people love the smell of old books and others don’t.
If you’re one of those people who don’t really dig the smell of an old book, don’t rush into buying a Kindle, as there might be something that can be done. If you want to get rid of that musty odor, you can take that box of dryer sheets that you’re going to use throughout your house (you just don’t know it yet) and brush the books lightly.
The result is that your favorite book will smell way better, without feeling as if you’re sleeping in an ancient library!

Within a reasonable amount of time..
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.
Hang a dryer sheet at the entrance to your tent when camping to keep mosquitos away.
I HAVE FOUND THAT IF YOU PLACE A DRYER SHEET WHERE MICE USUALLY COME INTO YOUR HOUSE—THEY STAY AWAY. TRY IT. IT WORKS.
