We have been in search for the perfect solution to keeping birds and critters out of the dryer vents we clean. The vent caps that are available in all stores are terrible, poor quality using plastic that breaks down after a few years to allow pest’s to move in. Dryer vent cleaner have for the past year been looking for better solutions to the poor products available in Home Depot, Rona, Canadian Tire and Home Hardware. Our bird proof dryer vent is exclusive to Dryer Vent Cleaner you will not see this vent anywhere else in Canada.
Is There Really a Pest Proof Vent?
Yes there is and we are selling and installing them right here in Burlington and the surrounding areas. Our new vent cap has a double door system that makes it impossible for birds and critters to get in, they cannot hold one door up and then lift the second one.
Longer Lasting Bird Proof Vent Cap
Our pest proof dryer vent caps are made to last, they will not start to break down after a few years because we use a superior U/V stable polypropylene material that will still look like new in many years to come and does not turn brittle like the vent caps on the market right now.
Vent Cap That Saves You Money
Our bird proof vent cap actually saves you money! Have you ever felt how cold it can get inside your dryer? This is because cold air blows in through the louvered vent caps found on most homes thus lowering the temperature inside the home. The double door system prevents cold air blowing back in through the vent so .
Benefits of Our Pest Proof Vent Cap Other Vent Caps Cannot Provide
With our bird poof vent the following features are there
When Closed Position (Not Running)
- Birds and other pests are not able to enter the vent because of the dual door design
- No energy grabbing drafts can blow in again because of the double door
- Slick clean look with no place for wasps of bees to nest
When Open Position (running)
- This is the most efficient vent around! Drying time is increased as damp air and lint can escape so much easier
- No screen to restrict lint exiting and damp air exhausting, lint does not gather at the end because of the smooth design and restriction free exit
- Reduced fire risk due to reduced lint build up – no cold air inside means less condensation – hot air meets cold air outside the dryer vent.
Louvred Vents = Easy Nest for Birds
The 3 or 4 louvres on most vents provide an easy entry to your warm vents for birds. After a few years they wear out or distort making it easy for the bird to use it’s beak and lift up the louvre to gain entry. Birds bring a lot of nesting material into the vent which can be a huge fire risk!
Choice of 3 Colors for Our Pest Proof Vent Cap
We have available our pest proof vents in the following colors – white, brown and tan. There are no other vents available in tan on the market!

Whats Wrong With My Dryer Hose?
We see so many second floor dryers that vent to the roof that are seriously a potential fire hazard over time. If you have a second floor laundry room your vent will terminate either on the roof or on the side of your home. Whilst it is great to have a second floor laundry room, it is very difficult for most home owners to make sure the vent cap or roof vent is kept free from lint build up. Some second floor dryers are close to the outside wall making it easy for the home owner to disconnect the dryer from inside and reach in to clean the dryer vent. However many laundry rooms are in the middle of the home with longer runs that are impossible to clean without professional equipment, or they are venting up to the roof.
It is not fair to say roofers cannot read, but when a dryer roof vent says “Do Not Use This Model for Dryer Venting” it does make one wonder! Here at dryer vent cleaner we can only assume that when roofs are shingled or re-shingled they do not always know which vent is the dryer vent. It’s not hard to determine but when under pressure to get the job done it can get over looked. However after re-shingling it’s easier to determine as lint is normally present in the vent.
Dryer Vent Cleaner have determined that most roof dryer vents need to be modified to prevent lint build up and ensure lint has a better chance of getting out! Whilst this does not mean the dryer vent does not need to be cleaned it helps reduce how often cleaning is required.
