I got that info from a vegan, but can't really track down a valid source for info. It seems like eveywhere I look the same article is being quoted. And mostly everyone wants to talk about the carcinogens.

Read the MSDS on dryer sheets. All kinds of funky stuff. And a dryer sheet is not something you need. I know we tolerate a lot of stuff in life, but why stuff we don't need?

What is a non toxic alternative? Guests expect fluffy towels and fresh smelling sheets! I have used dryer sheets for years and never gave it a second thought!
Are some brands worse than others? I use Arm and Hammer who claim to be 'green' and safe.

Towels should get fluffy just being in the dryer vs line-drying. Dryer sheets actually make towels not absorb as well. And I would prefer my towels not smell like anything. Ditto the sheets.
You can search for 'non-toxic dryer sheets' and get a bunch of info. But, like I said, I don't use them so I haven't searched for an alternative. You can go to the Arm & Hammer site and they will have the MSDS on there, somewhere. It MAY be on the box (the list of ingredients) and you can match that up with the online lists of carcinogens in dryer sheets.
You've probably read about my hair-raising static problems in the winter! Good thing I don't have a pacemaker! So I am going to try to find something that works for this winter. Plus, I bought those microfiber blankets that need to be de-staticked before I put them on the beds!
I have a friend who makes laundry sachets but they don't remove static. She says to try vinegar in the wash. Which is what ginocat always used to say as well.
