A BALL OF CELOTAPE

The best thing to use is a lint roller - the best one I've found (and the one I always buy) is the Lint Roller from the 3M brand. You can find them in pretty much any grocer, or drug store.
Another alternative is to put on a rubber glove -- the yellow dishwashing kind -- and start at the top and run your hand down over the trousers until the fluff and white bits come off.
In the future, it's best to wash clothes like this (which are likely to pick up a lot of lint) separately - and DEFINITELY not with your sweaters or towels.
Hope this information helps.

The best things I've used to get lint from any cloth item is scotch tape. I've never used duct tape but I will and I'm certain it will work just as well as scotch tape. Tape a strip of tape and hold the strip at both ends and pop the strip on and off going up and down the item. When the tape gets fuzzy, throw away and get another strip, and repeat until all lint is gone. I will try the vinegar idea as well. Vinegar seems to great product to use in so many situations. Good Luck everyone!! A great Texan lady

If you wrap sticky tape around your hand sticky side facing out you can pat the jeans and the fluff will be stuck to the sticky tape

In a pinch, you can grab about 8" of tape between your two hands and drag it across the fabric. You may end up going through a fair amount of tape.
In reality, you should get a decent lint brush.
Get one like this - http://www.myfullerbrush.com/lint-brush.htm or like this - http://www.sewtrue.com/LintRemoversandBrushes.html#Anchor-FABRI-18912.
A good lint brush will also have the benefit of raising or smoothing the nap of the fabric, for those times when you're trying to look especially well put together.

Wrap some sort of tape around your hand and dab at the bits. Also at drug stores, fabric stores you can buy a roller that is some type of tape. Roll it over your clothing.

Do the tape thing... but for the future when you put them in the dryer put a tennis ball in there too. All the lint will stick to the ball and not the pants.

Buy a sticky roller from your local pound shop.
