I have debfoster installed automaticaly in all my chroots (as part of
the create a chroot script) and I just run this every now and then:

sudo debfoster -f -o RemoveCmd="apt-get --purge remove -y"

Remember that sbuild does not always clean up properly. Debfoster is
my maid that does serious cleanup while sbuild just tries not to mess
things up too bad.
