Description from the creator

Learn how to quickly and effectively clean the lint out of your dryer duct. Cleaning your dryer vent makes your dryer more efficient and reduces the risk of fire from dryer vent lint. Every load of laundry leaves just a little bit more lint sticking to the inside walls of your dryer vent duct. Even if you clean your lint trap with every load, some lint will always get past that trap. This lint builds up and coats the inner walls of your dryer duct, and over time it can build up so thick it can literally close off the duct entirely.
