It may be the courseness but I have noticed that about the time the white substance stops coming out of the drier sheet the bugs stop coming off as easily. They still come off but you have to rub harder. Personally I think there is a chemical reaction from the substance in the drier sheets that assists in breaking down the dried and hardened bugs.

I thought it was the coarseness of the sheet that did the cleaning. I don't think the fabric softener has anything to do with bug removal.
Use......"used" dryer sheets. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Seems to me that Adrian has a point...if it were solely about the "coarseness" why wouldn't something else work?
