Getting fluff off clothes after washing

When I say fluff I don't mean huge amounts of lint, it more like tiny specs but all over, if I just chuck clothes in a rinse cycle without liquid it gets rid of anything.
I use liquid tabs in my wash.
Just don't think it looks good to have my work clothes covered in it.

You could use a lint remover roller to get rid of it - but probably need to look into why it is happening.
Are you using a dryer? If so, maybe try using that less oten.0 -
It often avoid this problem if you wash everything inside out.0
-
Does your washing machine have a filter? If so, it might need cleaning out.0

Sorry sorry, exhausted as got a cold. No filter that I know of it is at least 10 years if not 15 old though.
I do put trousers and t shirts/shirts in same wash as underwear though.0 -
If your work clothes are dark I would wash them separate from lights and make sure nothing in pockets such as tissues.0

I use a sticky roller, which I got at IKEA for a couple of Pounds. It takes care of most things.
Separating the wash into two, one for lights and one for darks does help a lot.
