I know this picture is hard to look at and I can hear my mom's voice in my head saying, "Aren't you ashamed," but I need to post this if only to save someone from a house fire. Dust bunnies behind, around, and underneath the dryer are a real fire hazard. I had no idea that there was so much debris underneath my dryer! In my defense, there was a hole in the hose leading to the vent, but if I had been keeping home properly, I would have noticed it sooner. So needless to say, my day was spent in our tiny laundry closet. I vacuumed, mopped, and wrestled for a very long time with the new dryer vent hose. I really wanted one of those dryer dock hoses (pictured next), but no one had them in stock and I couldn't leave the job undone and make more work for my dear husband.
Next time I decide to tackle this project, I may invest in this little jewel FIRST. I need to have my husband inspect the dryer hose before actually running my dryer. I had to use electrical tape to tape it the wall vent before I could get the brace that holds it tightly in place on the vent. Here's how my floor looked after vacuuming but before mopping...forgot to take that picture lol:
