Spring is coming and so are Birds Nests

Spring is coming early to South Texas and along with the great cool weather is the threat of birds nests in our dryer vents.  Birds are building their nests over the next couple of months and they love dryer vents.  A birds nest can make a real mess of your vent causing it to back up with lint which can cause damage to your appliance or your home.



We have seen some really impressive birds nests in dryer vents.  But the problems they cause home owners are real.  If you think you have a birds nest call a professional dryer vent company immediately.  There are simple solutions to prevent birds building a nest such as a simple pest guard picked up from any local diy store.

Spring Cleaning is almost upon us

Yep, it's that time of year where we take stock of our homes and garages to see what needs to be addressed and what can wait.  Personally I have a lot to do this year and even though I own the company, my dryer vent needs cleaning.

How do I know:
1. It's taking a bit longer than normal to dry clothes.
2. My daughter never checks the lint screen and have of the build up gets blown back into the vent.
3. I've waited almost a year.

Guess it like anyone who does repair work their home is last on the list.  So, this weekend I am going to see what a years worth of lint looks like.  Maybe I'll take pictures and post them here?
