Leave it out for birds to use in their nests, or put it in toilet paper tubes for fire starters while camping or using your firepit.
Here's an idea:
Dryer Lint and Horticulture
– Line plant pots with dryer lint, then add potting soil and plants. The lint keeps the soil in, but lets the water out.
– Use dryer lint as a kind of indoor mulch to help conserve moisture for your indoor tropical plants. Just spread the dryer lint on the surface of the plant soil; water the plant as usual.
– Conserve moisture in outdoor container plants, or around the base of small specimen plants, by mulching with dryer lint.

I have a friend who saves toilet paper tubes and stuff them with dryer lint for a fire starter in her wood stove.
Mogie's post is spot on. These TP lint-filled rolls are great to take along while camping to use as starters for a campfire or even a wood-burning fireplace.

You can put it in the yard for the birds to build nests with. I have seen where people stuffed pillows with it but it flattens in no time at all.
I like the bird nest idea
