Chewing Gum in Pant Pocket

Ice or put them in the freezer.

Put ice on it. The gum will harden and be easy to pick off.
Peanut butter is also great for gum, but be careful if it will leave an oil stain and then you have a different problem.
Try freezing and scraping.

Goo gone!!!! Then when it is off, use a pre-treater on the residue before you put them in the wash.

Goo Gone does work, but it leaves an oily residue.
I have found that hand sanitizer works very well in removing sap and gum from skin and long hair. Try it on the pants before you try the goo gone.

Good Luck,

A product called "Goo Gone." You should be able to find it pretty easily.

I have heard you can freeze it???
