I don't see my son or my dog reaching it... (he's short) so I have to.
You going to come clean my lint trap baby? Sounds kind of devilish... ;)

you gotta do it each time you run the dryer because if you don't it becomes a potential fire hazard...
Fire destroys half of apartment building, leaves 22 homeless - By Taylor Bright - Charlotte Observer (12/17/2006)
Charlotte, NC - A fire forced 22 people out of their homes after lint in a dryer ignited in a Mecklenburg County apartment complex on Saturday. "The exhaust duct blocked up," said Jay Alexander, spokesman for the Idlewild Volunteer Fire Department. The lint caught fire and was soon burning through the apartment building. It destroyed half of the building. The department arrived shortly after 1 p.m., Alexander said. It spent 45 minutes putting out the fire in the 20-apartment building. The fire damaged eight apartments where the 22 people lived. The other apartments were saved by a firewall, Alexander said. (Access the URL below for related news stories).
On a happier note, according to about.com, if you're not sure what to do with your lint, you can use it for your miniatures, since it supposedly is not a hazard... http://miniatures.about.com/od/recycleyourtrash/a/dryerlint.htm
Whatever the case, just do it!!!

I live in an apartment, and we all have an agreement that we all take out our own lint. It just makes it easier on the person using it after you. I'd hate to accidently not take the lint out and get someone elses line on my stuff.

Whoever is doing the laundry that day cleans it before turning the dryer on.

Sometimes
One time I didn't do it for so long it made an exploding noise and lint was all over my clothes.

If I left it for someone else it would never get done so yes I do every time I use the dryer.

Leave it. It always needs to be cleaned when I use it.
