Category: home skills / food storage I love any product with multiple uses. Turns out that Bounce dryer sheets are the multi-tasking gold mine! This is a product that most of us have in our laundry room, and check out the myriad of uses!
1. Need to keep yellow-jackets and bees away? Forget the bee spray and simply tie a sheet of Bounce to your belt loop.
2. Have a problem with ants? Forget the toxic ant sprays and lay a sheet of Bounce near them. Watch it chase the ants away!
3. Do your old photo albums and books that are used infrequently have a funny odor? Stick in a sheet of Bounce.
4. Not just a yellow-jacket repellent, Bounce sheets work as mosquito repellant as well.
5. Use Bounce sheets to eliminate static electricity from your TV or computer screen. This will also help keep dust from re-settling.
6. Use Bounce to clean your shower doors, and watch the soap scum disappear.
7. Place a sheet of Bounce in your drawers to freshen the air in your home.
8. Next time you replace your vacuum's bag, put in a sheet of bounce. The heat from the vacuum will enhance the scent.
9. Prevent thread from tangling. Run a threaded needle through a sheet of Bounce before beginning to sew.
10. To prevent suitacases from getting musty, place a sheet of Bounce inside empty luggage before storing.
11. Place a sheet of Bounce under the seat in your car to freshen the air.
12. 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. (I love this one!).
13. Eliminate odors in wastebaskets by placing a sheet of Bounce at the bottom.
14. Eliminate static electricity from Venetian blinds. Wipe the blinds with a sheet of Bounce to prevent dust from re-settling.
15. Deoderize shoes or sneakers. Place a sheet of bounce in your shoes or sneakers overnight.
16. Wipe up sawdust from drilling or sand papering. A used sheet of Bounce will collect sawdust like a tack cloth.
