cover for tumble dryer pipe

[wallofbeans]

im not sure what its called… its the pipe that sends hot air from the tumble dryer.. lots of folks stick it out a window but we have a hole in the glass that it fits through.. what i wanted was some sort of cover for the end of it so that the air can still get out but any creatures cant get in!

does anything like this exist?
what would it be called?
and where can i buy it? (online or off)

thanks all

Chicken Wire!

Just roll a small amount of it in a ball and poke it in the end of the ‘vent hose’ (remember to take it out and clear away the lint regularly! 😉 )

really? wow!
not just placed over the end but actually rolled in a ball. and that wont block the air coming out?
