You need to investigate the exhaust ducting behind the dryer, it may have an air leak. Dryers *suck* air IN from the room, through grills or gaps in the exterior cabinet, through the heating element or gas burner housing, through the drum, through the filter, through the blower, and OUT the exhaust duct.

Assuming you keep the lint screen clean after each load. You also should check the vent hose to make sure it's not full of lint.

I finally found the source of a lot of the lint in my laundry room after years of frustration. The vent pipe wasn't connected to the tail piece that goes thru the wall to the exterior. Basement laundry with the vent going through the rim joist close to the floor above with the connection back on top of the foundation wall. All of which was behind a HVAC duct in front of it.

I found it by feeling around up there and confirmed by using a flashlight & mirror. Very difficult spot. Also found gaping holes where the outdoor faucet, electrical entry and cable penetrated. Which explained why the laundry room was icy cold in the winter and Spider Central. Got all of that foamed shut, replaced the vent cover with a Lambro ball vent, all the joints taped with the proper foil tape, not the duct tape that dh used. Laundry is much, much warmer, spider traffic way down and lots less lint.

im having so much lint in my home every where, its driving me crazy, we rerouted our dryer vent because we found the wall was full of lint and had come apart as well they used duct tape, so we cleaned that fixed it fixed the sheet rock, so we used the same hole that was in the wall but rerouted it through the garage and then out through the wall, but i think we have to many 90 degree angles and msybe some shorter than 90 degree angles , buy im still having dryer lint inside my home everywhere, on the inside of my dryer door im seeing dryer lint around the inside seal of my door and on top of my inside dryer lint trap, and i clean it after every use, i also never see dryer lint outdoors either, could some one give me some insight on what we are doing wrong, lint is in every room no matter how much i dust ! its driving me insane and im driving my husband insane as well!

Paula, any luck?
