How do I clean charging port on Iphone6?

I carry my Iphone6 in my pocket. I am having trouble charging the phone, since the connection is poor. it might be lint from my pocket. I have tried blowing compressed air, to no avail. Any suggestions? (tools? going to a jeweler?)

iPhone 6, iOS 10.1.1

You can try a wooden toothpick if you are very gentle with it. Or a toothbrush (dry, without toothpaste, of course... One would think that would go without saying, but based on the number of people who have attempted to charge their phones in a microwave or used a drill to find the "secret headphone jack" on an iPhone 7, one can never be too careful...).
