People need to know the dryer has a lint trap

What you are looking at isn't just a mountain of harmless gray fuzz.
​It is a ticking time bomb. It is a highly flammable, oxygen-rich mountain of tinder sitting inches away from an intense heat source and high-voltage electrical wiring.
​Most Canadians think that cleaning out that little plastic lint screen after every load means they're safe. They are dead wrong.
​Over months and years, fine lint bypasses that screen, escapes the vent hose, and builds up behind your appliances where you can't see it. It traps heat. It restricts airflow. And all it takes is one tiny spark from your dryer's heating element to turn your laundry room into an inferno in less than 120 seconds.
​This isn't a rare fluke. Hundreds of Canadian homes are severely damaged or destroyed every single year by dryer fires that started exactly like this.
​Don't flirt with disaster.
​Pull your machine out this weekend. If it looks like this video, clean it out immediately or call a professional vent cleaning service before you press "Start" on another load.
​Your family’s safety depends on it.

I clean dryer ducts for a living. Some people don't even know this exists. 😳

Your dryer has a lint trap. If you've never cleaned it — you need to tonight.
