Let’s talk dryer lint

Most people don’t even give dryer lint a second thought and that it’s only a byproduct of drying your clothes. Well I can tell you it does have some uses-
​
1. It can be composted and become a benefit to your garden. It is considered a brown material so it will need to be mixed with green material.

2. It can also be used as a fire starter. When I use it to start a fire I fill a empty toilet paper tube with the lint and light it. It works great in a pinch when we don’t have kindling to help start a fire. Keep in mind like using paper your wood stove chimney will need to be cleaned more often.

I hope this helps to change your outlook on dryer lint and that it isn’t just trash.

​Blessings all! Thank you for stopping by!
