Lots of Uses for Bounce

I got the following from a friend and thought I would pass it along to the  
list.  I don't know if you really can use Bounce for all these things,  but 
it's certainly an easy solution to mosquitoes and yellow jackets.

 My mail carrier told me that the US Postal service sent out a  message to 
all letter carriers to put a sheet of Bounce in their uniform  pockets to keep 
yellow jackets away...Use them all the time when  playing baseball and soccer.  
I use it when I am working outside. It  really works; yellow jackets just 
veer around you.

And 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. Spread them around foundation areas, or in trailers, 
cars  that are sitting and it keeps mice from entering your vehicle.

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

Repels mosquitoes. Tie a sheet of Bounce through a belt loop  when outdoors 
during mosquito season.

Eliminates static electricity  from your television (or computer) screen.

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

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

Freshen the air in your home.  Place an individual sheet of Bounce in a 
drawer or hang in the  closet.

Put Bounce sheet in vacuum cleaner.

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

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

Freshen the air in your car. Place a sheet of Bounce under the  front seat.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Put a Bounce sheet in your sleeping bag and tent before  folding and storing 
them. Keeps them smelling fresh.

And now  that you know, print and keep on file or pass it around!
