What pet parents say
★★★★★ 4.9 · 27 reviews on Chewy (89% 5-star)
"With 2 big dogs and a cat at home pet hair is always a challenge! I was amazed at the amount of hair in my lint collector after just the first load! The balls are a good size and I love that they are all natural!"
"A game-changer for managing dog hair in the laundry! They help lift fur out of bedding and blankets, reduce drying time, and are surprisingly quiet. A smart, eco-friendly addition to our pet routine."
"I've used dryer balls for years and love them. There does seem to be a bit less dog hair on the clothes — I have two Australian Shepherds, I KNOW about dog hair on clothes! I recommend these little gems."
"I've been skeptical about dryer balls since they became popular. I've always had several dogs that shed, and I never thought they'd be effective for removing fur. Happily, I was wrong."

FAQ
Are 6 balls enough, or do I need more?
Six is plenty for a standard large dryer. For an extra-large machine (>7 cu ft, 20+ lb loads) use 6–8; for a compact dryer (<3.5 cu ft, under 15 lb) 3–4 is enough.
Do they really remove pet hair?
Yes. As the balls tumble they reduce static cling so loose fur releases from fabric and carries into the lint trap. Clear the lint trap after each load for best results.
How long do they last?
Up to 1,000 loads — roughly 3–5 years of regular use — replacing single-use dryer sheets and saving money over time.
Which fabrics should I avoid?
Delicate, snag-prone fabrics (silk, chiffon, lace, cashmere); heavily embellished items (sequins, beadwork, metal studs); and waterproof technical gear (Gore-Tex, PU-coated). Wool garments can felt from the friction, so keep those out too.
Do I need fabric softener or dryer sheets with them?
No — the wool softens fabric and cuts static on its own. Liquid softener and dryer sheets leave a coating on the wool that reduces how well it cuts static, so skip them on pet-hair loads. Clean the balls every 60–100 loads (or sooner if they feel slick) with a warm soak in mild detergent.
How do I clean and care for them?
Every 60–100 loads (about 3–6 months), soak in warm water with a little mild detergent, gently knead, and air dry. Store them in the included cotton bag when not in use.

These little balls pack a powerful punch, I was hesitant to leave dryer sheets but I’m so glad that I did! The little storage pouch is super useful. I love these!

Did not help remove hair at all from clothes

I’ve used wool dryer balls before and they usually help with the static cling. They don’t seem to help with it.
