Inspect External Dryer Vent
Dirty or damaged dryer vents can let in bugs and rodents as well as extend the amount of time it takes to dry your clothes.
We've all heard the horror stories of fires, dead birds, lint buildup, and teams of ants and rodents coming through dryer vents. Prevent this by taking a quick look each month at your external dryer vent and making sure it's free from debris.
We love the full-closing dryer vents as they stop the flow of cold air as well as prevent entry from our outside friends.
