I pour bleach into a spray bottle and spray it around the washing machine then use a sponge to wipe all around. After that I the extra rinse cycle to ensure all the bleach is gone before washing my clothes again. Don’t want to ruin any clothes because you didn’t rinse out all the bleach.

Most often, lint problems are related to your dryer. If there is lint on your clothing after the wash, it should come off in the dryer. Dryer Balls are a natural alternative to dryer sheets, and are very effective at removing lint from clothing. You may also want to try a dryer brush set. These will allow you to clean your dryer of residual lint that is deposited out of sight. Once removed, you will find less on your clothing once the load has finished.

You forgot to mention to clean inside the fabric softener tube. Once you take off the part you put the liquid in take a look down the middle of your washer. I never used liquid fabric softener and yet I see mold growing down there. It is difficult to find a brush to clean it out. I was able to get one through work, but keep looking. I pour bleach down it and then scrub.
