Eliminate chemicals, reduce drying time, and soften your clothes sustainably. These dryer balls are made of 100% domestic wool, handcrafted in Maine. By efficiently circulating your laundry, clothes will dry 10-25% more quickly, saving you cash!
Pro tip: Add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to freshen your clothes at the same time. We recommend a eucalyptus essential oil - the perfect pairing with our eucalyptus laundry detergent!

To Use
Toss into your dryer with your laundry! They'll do the rest of the work.
How many do I need?

These are general guidelines; the more you use, the more quickly your laundry will dry and the softer it will be.
Help! My laundry still has static!
We've got you covered! Try one or all of these tricks to help.
(1) Reduce your heat setting and stop your dryer before the cycle ends. If the laundry is already dry, keeping it in the cycle longer will create more static.
(2) Wet 1-2 of your dryer balls and toss them back in for a few minutes.
(3) Add a safety pin to some or all of your dryer balls.
Care
Should your dryer balls need some cleaning, simply toss in the washing machine on a warm cycle.
Packaging + End of Life
These dryer balls should last for hundreds of laundry loads. They may start to fray, but they’ll still work! Once they’ve reached the end of their life, though, just toss in the compost pile.

The title is catchy, but...
I thought it would eliminate static cling, and it doesn’t. I always use all three balls. Have to still add dryer sheets, so they really don’t help that much. Wish they did.

I'm so sorry you're still experiencing static with your dryer balls. Here are a few options you can try to reduce the static: (1) Reduce your heat setting and stop your dryer before the cycle ends. If the clothes are already dry, keeping them in the cycle longer will create more static. (2) Wet 1-2 of your dryer balls and toss them back in for a few minutes. (3) Add a safety pin to some or all of your dryer balls. Please let us know how these little hacks work for you! Winter can be such a drag with static :/

Never buy dryer sheets again!
I absolutely love these! I have sensitive skin so finding dryer sheets has always been hard. Well no more there not only replace the sheets they save me money. They dry my cloths faster and my skin dose not get irritated or itchy and my cloths come out free of static and soft. They also last a nice long time. Worth every penny.
