1
Wash the sweatpants in a washing machine using a laundry detergent that lists cellulase in its ingredient list. Cellulase enzymes help loosen lint and fuzz. Wash the sweatpants by themselves or with only a few other dark items.
-
2
Dry the sweatpants in a dryer. Machine-drying removes the fuzz and lint after washing.
-
3
Roll a piece of duct tape over your hand with the sticky side facing out. Press the duct tape on any remaining fuzzballs to pull them off the sweatpants.
-
4
Brush the sweatpants with a lint roller or specialty lint brush if fuzzballs and lint remain. A regular hairbrush will often work just as well.

5
Pluck off any fuzz and lint that continue to cling to your sweatpants with a pair of tweezers.
