Nellie’s Nugget Questions
May 22nd, 2008
The casing on the laundry and dish nuggets are made of mono sol film and dissolves in water, therefore there is no need to “open” the nugget.

I contacted you moments ago re: a prematurely expired laundry ball.
I was happy to see you have new laundry balls on the way(july 2008?).
Seeing that i have one cracked(useless laundry ball), i would be glad to field test a new set of TPR balls if they are available?
following the bouncing ball
thank you

I have been a user of your dryer balls for many years. I am now having a problem with my tennant complaining that she is allergic to the dryer balls. I’m wondering if you could tell
me what they are made of and what could possibly be making her skin itch. She is demanding that I stop using them and to be really honest I don’t want to stop. I thought they
were allergy free. Do you have any comments.
Thanks Barb

To answer the question about allergies and Dryerballs:
The current Dryerballs are made of PVC. Once the PVC has cured it can only off gas at extremely high temperatures. Even if your dryer was on fire, the Dryerballs would still not be hot enough to off gas. Also the off gassing is so minor it is not considered a hazardous. There is absolutely no chemicals or oil ever released from the balls. They are completely hypoallergenic.
It should also be noted that in the past when we have had questions or concerns similar to yours it most often turns out to be the detergent or something that is being added to the laundry. Before you discontinue using your Dryerballs we recommend trying a natural detergent. If you are already using a natural detergent try a different brand. It is possible that your tenant is allergic to a natural ingredient in your existing detergent. Naturally we would recommend Nellie’s All Natural. If you are not already using our product we would be happy to send you a sample.

So what will be some of the better features of the NEW Dryerball and when do you think it will be available for purchase?
Julie says:
Are the new dryerballs going to be available soon? I’ve been looking forward to buying a set.

We are still in the material testing stages for the new dryerball. We are looking at the second quarter of 2009.

I would just like to tell you how great your dishwashing soda works- I was having alot of problems with dishes not being clean after I ran a cycle- now that I have switched to Nellies, I never have any problems with food being left on dishes or film on them! You’ve done it again anothe wonderful product… but I am sure you already knew that.

Do I need to clean my dryer balls periodically? Given that I cloth diaper I was wondering if any residual smell might affect the smell of the rest of my laundry. (Toddler poo is horrible!) Thanks! I do love them and they leave my son’s fleese blanket sleeper supre soft and static free!
admin says:
I would suggest adding 1 Tablespoon of Oxygen Brightener to your load of cloth diapers (if the manufacturer allows this) as well as 1/4 cup of vinegar to the load every few times. This will help to eliminate the “stinky smell”.

I have been using your laundry soda and love it! I was pleased to see that the larger size was available. I also ordered the dishwashing soda for the first time and will look forward to using it too. I live in Canada and don’t have any retailers near me, so being able to order your products is great! Let’s continue to save the planet in even the smallest ways possible! Every little bit counts!
P.S. …i love the canister that the nuggets come in! I really want one for the laundry soda! My washer is a front loader though….can i use the nuggets in a front loader?? Or….how can i get a canister??
thanks!
Maggie

Hi,
I am having some trouble with lip gloss and chapstick remaining on my plastic cups after being run through the dishwasher, will Nellie’s remove them?
Thanks,
Sherri

Nellie’s Auto Dish Powder and Nuggets work very well on hard to remove substances in the dishwasher.
ced says:
so when are the new dryer balls coming out????
Erin says:
Hi,
I purchased some dryer balls at a home show in Red Deer and they were all out of the essential oil fragrance that I prefered. They said I could go on-line and order it but I don’t see it anywhere?? The dryer balls I purchased were the ones that have the fragrance stick inside…
Thanks!

Hi
I am wondering if you could provide any more information on the laundry soda. Do all the ingredients break down in a certain time period? Is this considered a green laundry detergent?
Thanks,
Brad

Nellie’s Laundry Soda breaks down immediately rinsing residue free. Yes, Nellie’s would be considered a green laundry detergent.
