Dryer Problem... HELP
We have a dryer that has the lint trap on the top where you pull out a long curved lint catcher on the top of the machine. I was attempting to take out the trap today and the lint fell back into the dryer. How do I get it out?? I tried vacuuming it up (Dyson w/ suction), clothes hanger, nothing works... what do I do? Will it cause a problem?

Re: Dryer Problem... HELP
I would put duct tape on the end of a yard stick. Good luck!

Yard stick would break, its curved... Maybe Id try it with a clothes hanger but then I would have duct tape in my lint trap

My DH uses his shop vac to clean it out. I think in your case, you may need to vacuum suction out the back where the vent duct connects to the dryer. PITA, but it helps clean it out really good.
