How to Get Rid of Lint on New Towels
When you purchase towels wash them alone in very hot water with laundry detergent and 1/2 cup of baking soda. Here are some more detailed instructions for washing new towels.
Dry them on high until they are completely dry. Never use bleach on your towels. Bleach breaks down the fibers and causes lint.
I always add baking soda to my bath towels. It makes them soft and fluffy, removes any odors. When washing towels wash just towels nothing else.

Please help. What is the best, easiest & quickest way to remove lint and/or shredded tissue/Kleenex (that got run through in the wash) from it being stuck in shaggy/shag/plush clothing that was also in the wash?
Thank you in advance.
What about towels that SPECIFICALLY say not to wash on hot? I have colored towels.
If it says to not wash them in hot water, it’s probably not a good idea. Might make the color fade faster?
