I stumbled onto this today when I was looking for something else. I have no 3D printing experience so I'm not sure how useful the information will be. https://www.simplify3d.com/resources/print-quality-troubleshooting/stringing-or-oozing/ When I was looking for solutions to your problem, people mentioned using a copper plated nozzle on your printer for better quality prints. Also the type of filament can make a difference. I'm also wondering what search terms you used to look for a solution. I tried a Google search for "Lulzbot Taz 6 stringy" (without the quotes) and came up with plenty on the subject and most were from the Lulzbot forums. Again, I can't say for sure if there is any useful information there because I don't know what they're talking about, but I thought it could be helpful to you.
