Bounce This Along




1. All this time you've just been putting Bounce in the dryer! It will
Chase ants away when you lay a sheet near them. It also repels mice.

2. Spread sheets around foundation areas, or in trailers, or cars that
Are sitting and it keeps mice from entering your vehicle.

3. It takes the odor out of books and photo albums that don't get opened too often.

4. It repels mosquitoes. Tie a sheet of Bounce through a belt loop when outdoors during mosquito season.

5. Eliminate static electricity from your television (or computer)
Screen.

6. Since Bounce is designed to help eliminate static cling, wipe your
Television screen with a used sheet of Bounce to keep dust from
Resettling.

7. Dissolve soap scum from shower doors. Clean with a sheet of Bounce.

8. To freshen the air in your home - Place an individual sheet of Bounce in a drawer or hang in the closet.

9. Put Bounce sheet in vacuum cleaner.

10. Prevent thread from tangling. Run a threaded needle through a sheet of Bounce before beginning to sew.

11. Prevent musty suitcases. Place an individual sheet of Bounce inside empty luggage before storing.

12. To freshen the air in your car - Place a sheet of Bounce under the
Front seat.

13. 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.

14. Eliminate odors in wastebaskets. Place a sheet of Bounce at the
Bottom of the wastebasket.

15. Collect cat hair. Rubbing the area with a sheet of Bounce will
Magnetically attract all the loose hairs.

16. Eliminate static electricity from Venetian blinds. Wipe the blinds
With a sheet of Bounce to prevent dust from resettling.

17. Wipe up sawdust from drilling or sand papering. A used sheet of
Bounce will collect sawdust like a tack cloth.

18. Eliminate odors in dirty laundry. Place an individual sheet of
Bounce at the bottom of a laundry bag or hamper.

19. Deodorize shoes or sneakers. Place a sheet of Bounce in your shoes or sneakers overnight.

20. Golfers put a Bounce sheet in their back pocket to keep the bees
Away.

21. Put a Bounce sheet in your sleeping bag and tent before folding and storing them. It will keep them smelling fresh.

22. Quick, bounce this on within the next 5 minutes! Nothing will happen if you don't, but your friends will be glad to hear these hints!

Is it any dryer sheet or just bounce? I knew a few of these hints but never imagined it would repel ants and mosquitos!! I know that when we went shopping this week, my trunk smelled so good from the box of Clingfree we had in there.

WOW! This is GREAT news. For real. I cant wait to get to the store, and get some Bounce. WOW! The vacuum thing is an excellent idea. AND I am very very afraid of bees. Like super bad, So I am sooo carrying some bounce on me at all times now.


(I'm so afraid of bees because I swear I am a magnet to them. Everywhere I go. Bees follow me like crazy, I mean like sometimes at like family picknics, I just go in the car for sometime, because all the bees follow me, and it's very irritating. I get stung ALL the time. Like lots and lots. Way more than one person probably should.)

THANK YOU!

Great for repeling black flies -roll up & put in shirt collar or under hat,tie in button hole-might look strange but who cares if the black flies stay away-

There's no place like home
I have used generic dryer sheets for the same purpose - it isn't just bounce.

I am selling my old house and it smells stale in there because we are not opening it up enough. We tucked dryer sheets in hidden places all over the house and it really helped the stale smell a lot.

When selling my last car, I wiped bounce all over the leather seats to make it smell better when I showed it to prospective buyers.

This really is a neat trick!
