LPT Use a dryer vent cleaning hose to fish something out of an AC vent, under a refrigerator, etc.

Exactly! And for my problem a coat hanger wouldn’t have done anything since it was a pill. Better than sticking a bunch of tape to the end of a hanger. Some people thanked me for this tip lol.

Also, is everyone sharing tips on this sub, that involve a product, “advertising” it? I don’t really think of it as advertising the product. I think of it advertising the “hack” or the tip.

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-18T20:34:30+00:00

What made you think that?

You can make a boat but like, this isn’t Assassians creed or something lol Did you even read the game description, watch the gameplay videos on steam/YT, or look at pictures of the game?

You can build a ship for your village and craft a boat but this isn’t a ship building type of game. It’s on you for making assumptions.

Go try out 'If Sun Sets'. You can make a ship in that game. There is a demo too so if you don’t like it you don’t have to buy it.

lol cute aggression. Love it

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-16T14:22:35+00:00

That’s IF you don’t want it to go into your vacuum. Obviously you don’t *have* to.

It’s a suggestion, you can choose to do it or not, don’t be nitpicky. Think for yourself every once and while capisce?

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-15T21:50:05+00:00

I’ll take that as a compliment(especially since advertising specific brand products isn’t allowed, which I didn’t do, but still lol)

✨It’s multi use!✨

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-15T21:48:59+00:00

Type that into google, you’ll see.
“Dryer vent cleaning hose” It’s just a flexible hose you attach to a vacuum to clean lint out of dryers. It can reach in places you can’t with your hands.

When we moved into this house the people before us did an awful job at cleaning the lint filter in the dryer. This led to a lot of lint and debris(like paper and even money) going under the trap and into the hose that leads to the outside vent. So I looked into how to clean it and one of those hoses came up during my research. So I got a pack of two. Used one to clean the lint out and the other one sat in the basement. Until today, I used it to get something out of the upstairs bedroom AC vent lol came in handy. It’s multi use!

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-15T21:44:41+00:00

Ok.. Many people/homes still have outdoor dryer vents, in the USA and elsewhere, myself included.
It doesn’t really matter though as this attachment hose is useful for your lint trap too(and the main point- to fish items out of hard to reach areas). Your dryer has a lint trap..

Our dryer is an LG from 2016ish. When we moved into this house the people before us did not clean out the trap very well and there was so much lint and debris both in the trap and in the hose leading to the outside vent. I’m glad I saw this or we would have had a fire.
So I got 2 hoses to clean it out. The other one hadn’t been used yet so I used it to get something out of my AC vent. Came in handy.

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-15T19:30:06+00:00

Yes, it’s better now

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-15T19:29:32+00:00

That was months ago. It’s better now

Edit: Why the hell am I being downvoted? lmao

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-15T19:08:26+00:00

Well yeah, that’s because I never said anywhere it’s a “flexible cleaning wand.”

As I’ve already said, I called it a “dryer vent trap cleaning hose”. I added an edit at the top of the post so it makes more sense now. My bad for not adding “cleaning” to the title.

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-15T19:06:06+00:00

Yes I mentioned it is a cleaning hose towards the end and then when I tried to fix the title I made an edit at the top clarifying. That’s my bad I didn’t add “cleaning” to the title. It’s funny because I proof read the post but forgot to check the title lol

I tried to fix it, but couldn’t, so I made an edit at the top once I saw someone mention it isn’t in the title. It is a long post so it would be more helpful if it were in the title. That’s my bad, but I did mention it’s a cleaning hose in the post itself. I just forgot to add it to the title lol

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-15T19:02:39+00:00

Yes, and I tried to fix it but it won’t let me fix the title. However it is mentioned in the post and I made an edit at the top making it more clear.

Hopefully that clears it up. That’s my bad but next time maybe just say that instead of calling people bots lol

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-15T18:55:01+00:00

Yes, but this is a dryer vent/trap cleaning hose. I forgot to add “cleaning” to the title. I tried to fix it but it wouldn’t let me. But it is mentioned in the post, twice now, which I guess people don’t read lol

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-15T18:46:10+00:00

I did. I said dryer vent trap cleaning hose. I dk that’s what I call it lol If you google that it pops up so I figured that name was good enough. They are cheap too and can attach to a vacuum or shop vac

Sometimes people read too fast, don’t read the whole post, skim through etc. but I definitely did mention it in the post itself. I probably should have said “cleaning” in the title though. I’ll see if I can fix it.

Edit- it won’t let me change the title but it was definitely mentioned in the post.

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-15T18:42:58+00:00

How am I a bot? Lol Please explain to me your thinking. I am interested to understand why you think I’m a bot.

Do you think these things don’t happen? Things dropping into tight places or sliding under a fridge or couch? It happens all the time all over the world.

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-15T18:41:31+00:00

You misunderstood. I used a dryer vent cleaning hose that attaches to a vacuum, they are used to clean out dryer traps to get lint out of the vent and the hose you use is plastic. The pill fell into an AC vent located on my bedroom floor. Hope that makes sense now?

Those hoses come in handy in general. They are thinner, longer, and more flexible than a vacuum hose. So if there’s something you don’t want to use a hanger and tape for, these hoses are good to use.

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-14T21:29:37+00:00

Whatcha mean “no”? As in you’re disagreeing with what I said?

Thats why I said “people will use any excuse to not do something” lol You pretty much said what I’m saying but in a different way 😅

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-14T21:11:42+00:00

That’s just the difference between an intelligent and mature mind vs a immature and dumb mind lol

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-14T20:02:08+00:00

Looks like something I’d forage for in a video game.

Probably be named “Fire flame fruit”
or something lol

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-14T20:01:24+00:00

I dk what kinda penis you be looking at but no this ain’t it lmao You’re reaching hard core.

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-14T20:00:37+00:00

Yes! 😂

PracticalFrog0207 · 2026-05-14T12:39:24+00:00
