How to Avoid Static Cling in Your Laundry
• Static cling is the result of fabrics rubbing up against each other and creating static electricity when tumbled in a dryer.
• Chemical-based fabric softeners and dryer sheets can reduce static cling, however, they can irritate sensitive skin and may contain potentially harmful ingredients.
• Non-toxic alternatives to combat static cling include: hang-drying clothing, using vinegar as a fabric softener or adding it to the dryer, and placing a wool dryer ball inside the dryer.
• Separating fabrics before drying is also an effective way to reduce static cling.
• Eco-friendly detergents can be used to ensure the entire wash and dry cycle is non-toxic.
