Preventing Fluff on Towels?

I wash my towels and tea towels together. Sometimes the towels on their own, but they are always full of fluff. My washing machine doesn't seem to have a lint filter. I clean my machine after every 100 washes, but it doesn't make a difference. Does anyone have ideas?

There are some items which are lint givers, and others which are lint takers. You cannot wash lint givers and takers together. A dryer will do a good job of removing the lint. You might want to dry them at a laundromat to get any fluff out and from now on separate those items. My husband's socks and undershirts are washed with towels because they leave white fuzz on everything

Solution 1: Wash the towels with a cup of white vinegar and the usual
amount of detergent.
Solution 2: Wash the towels with half a cup of baking soda or bicarbonate of soda and the usual amount of detergent.

It is best to dissolve the baking soda in water before adding it to the machine to stop the soda from congealing inside the machine.

Your dryer should be removing this, unless you hang dry. If it isn't working, try cleaning the lint trap to remove buildup of fabric softener.

In the future, don't use fabric softener on towels. Use dryer balls in the dryer instead.
