Alternative to dryer sheets?

We can't use dryer sheets because DS has really bad eczema and DH & I both have pretty sensitive skin. I use vinegar as fabric softener so that's not an issue but the static is insane! I never knew how much static those dryer sheets were eating up. Does anybody know any alternatives to dryer sheets to help with static?

    Less drying time (static is a sign of over-drying) and wool dryer balls.

    Opt for as much in the way of natural fibers as possible (less static) and wool dryer balls. I made my own and I love them.

    Ditto the less drying time, and maybe even dry at a slightly lower temp.  We've never really had any static issues, even before we did the dryer ball thing.

    I use a combo of vinegar in the rinse cycle (I use a Downy ball) and Fuzzy Wuzzy Dryer Balls from Etsy.
