Dryer ball directions
Use all 4 balls at the same time in your dryer for the most ideal results.* Lightly scent laundry by putting a few drops of your favorite essential onto the balls near the end of dryer cycle.
*Try to avoid overdrying your load of laundry. If you have static cling, the main reason is from overdrying. Remember: the balls will slightly reduce your drying time by tumbling and fluffying the laundry.
