   Hi Hetal and Anuja

   Do you have any tips on how to prevent bedsheets wadding or bundling up in the dryer? When this happens the sheets dont dry completely and its a waste of one dryer cycle!

   Hi Harshala,

   Usually, an open box of Baking Soda kept in the fridge is known to reduce odors. Maybe you can try it.

   It works since home drycleaning has a very similar method with the different twist to it is that you put up to 4 pieces of garment in a bag with a piece of drycleaning sheet which is moist and then the bag is velcro sealed and put into the dryer for about 20-30 minutes, depending on your dryer heat/temperature. Another way without the wash cloth is to use a spray bottle filled with tap water and then put the clothes in the dryer. If you don’t have a eco-friendly low-energy washer/dryer, then it’s better to use a steam iron… take a bit more time but eco-friendlier. It’s just water steaming from a steamer up-right iron.

   Another method I have found that takes longer, so with patience, it works for thicker cotton clothing… dry shorter time and the garment is semi-wet, hang on a shoulder thick hanger and stretch it out a bit… leave garment on hanger to dry in an open shady place for half a day to overnight, and it works just the same and ego-friendly. Enjoy!
