I package a few lbs of it together with some newspaper and school paste and sell it to bums as a "make your own sleeping bag" kit.

Quoted: Use it to start fires. Works great for this. One spark hits it and up it goes. I keep a small ziplock bag of it around for just that purpose. Other then that I can't see any real use for it. |

Get some paper egg cartons. Melt some paraffin wax and/or old candles, mix in the lint. Scoop it into the egg carton. Once cooled cut into individual pieces. Take camping and use it to start your campfire. Will burn nicely for about 15 minutes.

Could use to make insulation, but there would be a fire risk with it.

There's no market because everybody that has a dryer makes a shit ton of it.

Quoted: Seems link someone could do something with it. Discuss. That's what I use it for. If I'm in a house w/ a fireplace I never need to use the gas firestarter, just use a small wad of dryer lint. It works great. Have some in my bugout bag for starting fires. Have thought about adding some wax to it to make it even better. |

Actually, if you are composting, it can be added to your compost pile as "brown material". |

Quoted: There's no market because everybody that has a dryer makes a shit ton of it. It's merely improperly marketed. If the dems can get an empty suit elected, a good pitchman could absolutely sell dryer lint in a laundromat. I vote for TACTICAL Firestarting Kits. Wrap a ziplock baggy full of dryer lint in high speed FDE duct tape. Lay some high-test fishing line underneath for a quick-deploy pull tab. Stencil some gibberish about "Operator Grade Firestarter: Qty. 1" on the side. Viola, millionaire. |

supply and demand
there is no market for it because the supply is so great. everyone either has a dryer or has access to a dryer (ok, a vast majority). and while it may be useful to some, not everyone is trying to start fires after they do laundry so they just throw it out. |

Bingo! Supply vastly outstrips demand. |
