How do you make an animal trap?

How can I make something to clean my dryer lint trap?

  • Yes you can clean it with your fingers and by taking out the collector. But lint does accumulate down below that. That's what causes dryer fires. Ever look at your exit point for the hot air coming out of the hose? You'll find chunks of lint and stuff. They actually make this curved tool to attach the the vacuum to get down inside deeper. They run for around $20 a piece, and even then I'd wonder how long they last. So wondering if there is anything I can make on my own to do the same thing.

  • Answer:

    $20 bucks is cheap insurance against a dryer fire. You can also dismantle the dryer to clean the lint out. That's the best method, as far as thoroughness is concerned & shold be done once a year, depending on your venting.
