Bounce- 1. It will chase ants away when you lay a sheet near them. It also repels mice. 2.

Eliminate static electricity from your television (or computer) screen. 6. Since Bounce is designed to help eliminate static cling, wipe your television screen with a used sheet of Bounce to keep dust from resettling.. 7. Dissolve soap scum from shower doors.
