If your clothing is all cotton, then it is ok in your compost pile, and safe as a fire starter. Or maybe you at least have all cotton towels, so when you dry towels you can use that. Better yet, dry your clothes on the line!

Yes I am really skeptical about using it in my compost.

This is being semi-resourceful, but not green. I would not use polyester rags to start a fire, nor would I throw polyester in the compost, so why would I use lint with polyester in it.
wouldn't the soap, bleach, softener and dryer sheets hurt the worms?
