We’ve already explained how dryer sheets can clear soap scum right off your shower doors, bathtubs, and sinks, but they serve another purpose when it comes to cleaning—taking off burnt food residue off dishes. Take a fresh dryer sheet and submerse it in water, in the soiled dish. Leave it over night and watch how quickly the burnt residue comes right off in the morning! You’re definitely going to try this trick after all those years of scrubbing lasagna trays to no avail!

4. Aluminum foil
If you’re like my mom, you probably have a good stack of lightly used aluminum foil somewhere in the pantry—it’s sitting their to no avail because really it’s not used enough to discard but it’s not brand new either! Well, my mom would be happy to know there’s a way to repurpose those: crumple up a medium-sized piece of aluminum foil and throw it into your dryer! You may feel that dryer sheets prevent static, but nothing does the job as well as aluminum foil. Try it out!
