10 Genius Dryer Sheet Hacks That Have Nothing to Do With Laundry

How-to: Grab a used or new sheet and wipe down surfaces like TV screens, computer monitors, baseboards, and blinds. The sheet will capture dust instead of just sending it flying into the air.

2. Deodorize Stinky Spaces
That fresh scent is perfect for neutralizing odors, not just covering them up.

How-to: Place a sheet at the bottom of garbage cans, gym bags, or smelly shoes. You can even tuck one into your vacuum cleaner bag or canister to send a fresh scent through the room as you clean.

3. Keep Bugs at Bay
The ingredients (like linalool) in many dryer sheets are unappealing to certain insects.

How-to: Place sheets in pockets, picnic baskets, or around outdoor seating areas to help deter mosquitoes and gnats. Some people even rub a sheet on their skin (do a patch test first!).

4. Make Bathroom Cleaning a Breeze
