Cleaning the charging port?

[sprocket2107]

I always put my phone in my pocket so it was inevitable that I would get some lint in the charging port, my question is, how do I clean it out? I do not have easy access to any compressed air as I am at school and we are in the middle of no where and I don't feel like driving if I don't have to.

Dry toothbrush?

Canned air is what genius bar uses

Ditto. It's what I use and you can buy them pretty much anywhere.

Well, you can of course just blow in it.
Other ideas-
Compressed Air (Most stores have this)
If you have an air pump for you car/motorcycle/bicycle you can use that as well.

The OP said in the post that driving to get compressed air was not desired...

If you don't have a case with a cover to the charging port you can take a look at these:

I also heard that others have used mini vacuums to suck out the lint.

Just order some air cans off amazon if you don't want to drive.
