I have been doing this for quite a while and it works perfectly well unless I have an unusually large load. I also cut back on fabric softener down to just a small splash. Works great and laundry smells great but not an overbearing scent.Helpful Reply- See 2 previous

Just use a couple of tennis balls instead. Have done this for years and works just as well and you don't have to worry about the "invisible" build up on your dryer screen that dryer sheets cause.No, the yellow does not come off on your clothes. I change balls about once a year.Helpful Reply -

I never use fabric softener any more. Builds up on clothes and eventually some of them never look clean anymore-especially towels.Helpful Reply -

When you use fabric softeners, best you check your dryer lint filter. Try running water over your filter and you will notice it only slightly runs through the screen...this can cause a fire. I wash my filter with dish soap, then use brush and lightly scrub the screen and then rinse. You can notice the water runs right through the screen..prevents lint fire.Helpful Reply -

FYI dryer sheets contain toxins. Better to use something more eco friendly.Helpful Reply -
