Keep a box of dryer sheets in rooms other than the laundry room and use them to:

• Remove static from clothing, hair, TV screens, and computer monitors. Wipe the surface with a sheet.

• Clean pet hair from the floor or furniture. Rub a dryer sheet over the spot where Fluffy left her fur.

• Replace a sachet. Keep a dresser drawer smelling fresh and clean by placing a dryer sheet on the bottom of it.

• Loosen caked-on food from a pan. Place a fresh sheet in the bottom of a dirty pan, fill with lukewarm tap water, and let sit in the sink overnight. The pan will be easier to clean in the morning.
