They are very noticeable especially on black clothe. I always have to brush them off then use a lint roller everytime i wash my clothe. It has become a huge hassle. Any tips or suggestions on how to eliminate or reduce them?

  1. Try Bounce sheets...they help reduce static, thus not as much lint sticks.There will still be some.


  2. Wash all darker clothes together so there will not be any lighter color lint to show up.  Do medium or light colors separately (and clean the lint filter in the dryer between loads).

  3. Things You'll Need:

    White or cider vinegar

    Step1

    Clean your washing machine before your next wash load to be sure there is no lint trapped anywhere in the machine. Fill the tub about half full of water then add a couple of cups of white vinegar to the wash water. Allow it to agitate and then sit there and soak for at least an hour before you empty the machine.

    Step2

    Add a cup of either white or cider vinegar to your washing machine along with the detergent before loading in your clothes to keep lint off.

    Step3

    Sort out all towels and washcloths since they create lint. Put them through a separate wash cycle to keep them from transferring lint to your clothes.

    Step4

    Check the labels on all your clothing to be sure you sort them correctly. Cotton clothing produces lint in the washing machine while polyester clothing picks it up. Wash them at different times to keep the lint off those that are likely to pick it up.

    Step5

    Turn your clothes inside out before putting them into the washing machine to keep them from collecting lint as they go through the wash cycle.

  4. Turn dark clothes inside out before washing.

    Seperate dark from light clothes.

    Wash towels, dressing gowns and similar items on their own.

    Best wishes.

  5. I  use a shaver and shave them off works like a charm and before you put your clothes in the washer shake them and get the lint off oh and don't put the blankets or towels with any clothing when you wash. and shake them when you get them out of the wash.
