When was the last time you cleaned your dryer? You might want to give it a try. According to the United States Fire Administration (USFA), approximately 2,900 house fires are caused by clothes dryers each year.

While it's recommended that people clean their lint trap after each load of laundry, many people aren't aware that the build-up that occurs in the dryer vent ductwork should also be cleaned at least once a year. One bestselling Amazon Canada gadget that makes it easy to remove dryer lint is the Holikme Dryer Vent Cleaner Kit. This cleaning tool is a favourite among shoppers and has thousands of five-star reviews — and it's currently a whopping 48 per cent off.

This two-piece kit has nearly 43,000 ratings on Amazon Canada.
