6 Common Laundry Problems And Their Simple Solutions
Problem #1: Your bedding balls up in the dryer.
The Solution: To prevent bedding from twisting itself into ball, add wool dryer balls to your dryer when drying sheets, duvet covers, and other bedding items. They help maintain pockets of air between layers of fabric, both speeding up drying times and preventing wrinkles. (Some insist that tennis balls offer the same benefits, but wool dryer balls are much less noisy!)
These benefits were noticed immediately by one reviewer: “I am very happy with my purchase of the wool dryer balls. I used them for drying my sheets and it was the first time I didn’t have a pillow case or sheet rolled up and still wet at the end of the cycle. Saved me the time of additional drying!“
Problem #2: Your clothes are wrinkled and you’re in a hurry.
The Solution: When time is of the essence, don’t bother pulling out your iron and ironing board. You can steam the wrinkles out of any clothing item in minutes! My dryer actually has a steam setting, so I can just toss my wrinkled item(s) in, let them steam for 10 minutes or so, and they’re good to go!
You can achieve the same effect even without a special steam setting. Just toss your wrinkled item in your dryer along with a damp washcloth. Run your dryer for 10-15 minutes. The water will evaporate off the cloth in the dryer, creating enough steam to eliminate those wrinkles!

Problem #3: The shirt you want to wear smells less than fresh.
The Solution: Have your heart set on wearing a shirt that needs a little freshening up? You can use white vinegar to help eliminate those odors! Use a spray bottle of vinegar to dampen the shirt all over. Toss it in the dryer for a few minutes until it’s dry again. The vinegar will leave the shirt smelling much fresher (and don’t worry, the vinegar smell disappears too!)
