Pre-wash makeup
To solve the problem of lint formation during washing in the washing machine , here is a pre-wash trick that will be useful to you.

Wet wipes
To eliminate lint or animal hair in the washing machine , you could try a simple wet wipe .
Put the clothes in the washing machine and add one or two wipes to the drum with the laundry.
Run a delicate cycle with a few spin spins , so as not to let the lint take root.
Furthermore, the fluff is due to the rubbing of the fabrics; therefore, the less movement the clothes make during washing and the less lint takes root.
The quantity of wipes will depend on the amount of laundry you need to wash, but you will find that they will act as a DIY “lint catcher” for your washing machine .
