"Bounce" this around

> And all this time you've just been putting Bounce in the dryer!

> It will chase ants away when you lay a sheet near them.
>
> It also repels mice.. spread them around foundation areas, or in trailers
>or cars that are sitting and it keeps mice from entering your vehicle.

>often.
