I have a condensor tumble drier.
I opened it today and a horrible musty smell came out.
I took out the condensor unit thingy and realised that lots of the smell was coming from there. There was a build up of soggy fluff. I do clean the condensor unit from time to time, but I'm not sure when I last did it - I tend to loose track of time
Anyway, I've rinsed out the condensor unit and it's drying out at the moment. Then I wiped around the area where the condensor unit sits. I realised that lots of soggy fluff has got into lots of nooks and crannies that I can't reach.
Also, it looks like there may be mildew in places that I can't reach (sort of up the side between the condensor unit and the drum). The cloth was coming up black in these places and I don't know if it was dust, fluff or black mould.
I'm now panicking a bit. What do I do? Is it now unhygeinic to use my tumble drier?
