Do dryer sheets smell worse than men’s cologne?
I’ve never been able to decide whether I hate the smell of men’s cologne more than I hate the smell of dryer sheets, but I run from both as fast as I can. Who knows why cologne and dryer sheet companies think their products smell good. possibly the concept is that they smell better than another smell they are covering up, as in, Gee, I just got off work at the sewage treatment plant, so possibly I’ll splash on half a bottle of Eau de Annoying before I go out on my period. But I digress. Dryer sheets do more than produce you clothes smell like someone’s notion of “Spring-TIme Fresh” (yeah, possibly at the sewage treatment plant). They can plus coat your dryer’s filter with a waxy substance that will clog the filter’s fine mesh. Removing the lint after each load isn’t suitable. Use an old toothbrush, warm water and detergent to gently scrub the filter twice each year. A clean filter will enable your clothes to dry faster and save you some bucks on your energy bill.
