A humane haircut | Our alpaca fleece dryer balls are made from soft, 100% alpaca fleece fiber. Sheering an alpaca does not harm it. In fact, they actually kind of like it. Most sheering on the farm is done in the spring so the alpacas can stay cooler during the summer.

The Fleece | Alpaca coats are made from hollow fibers of hair; this hair can absorb moisture and decrease drying time. Reducing drying time saves money and protects delicate fabrics. Additionally, the fiber in the dryer balls does NOT break down over time, meaning they will last you for years.

Using dryer balls is easy | Simply throw 3 balls into the dryer with a load of laundry. As they tumble around, the alpaca balls keep your laundry separated. This reduces drying time, decreases static cling, and helps collect more lint. The coarseness of alpaca wool causes a gentle friction that softens fabric fibers and makes large items, like comforters, blankets, and towels, fluffier. Once you have retrieved your alpaca balls from all the places they like to hide in your clothing, simply store them inside your dryer or the box they came in until your next use.

Scenting | Add a few drops of essential oil to your dryer balls for a faint lingering smell on your fresh laundry. The amount of drops depends on your desired scent strength.

Fully compostable | When you’re ready to retire your dryer balls, you can do so in your own backyard. They will break down naturally without assistance. Perfume-Free ∙ Dye-free ∙ Hormone disruptor-Free ∙ Carcinogen-Free — and simply Worry Free
