Dryer duct cleaning removes clogged lint that builds up over time. The benefits of dryer duct cleaning are, fire safety, lower utility bills, and no mildew smells.
A birds nest in your dryer ducts will cause your clothes to run longer cycles. Lint will also build up inside the ducts from the bird nest to the inside of your clothes dryer's cabinet.
