How do I get smell out of my dryer?
For the past month, my dryer has had a bad smell. It's a new dryer that I purchased last year. I've cleaned it with vinegar and the smell goes away temporarily but comes back and has seeped in my clothes. I've done the same thing with my washer thinking that maybe the problem is coming from there. Any help is WELCOMED!!

Hi there,
Call the manufacturers or better still call in the people you bought it from and ask them to get it sorted.
I would start with cleaning the ducting and filter. Something may be caught (or crawled in) there. Here are some videos:

Here's a post that might help - https://chascrazycreations.com/natural-cleaning-with-vinegar/
Hello, hope this helps you. mix one-part vinegar with two parts warm water. Put the mixture in a spraying bottle and spray it inside your dryer. Let it sit for five minutes then wipe everything down with a microfiber cloth. Be sure to get into any nooks and crannies where lint and bacteria can hide.
You also want to check the vent at the back for dead critters that may have gotten in and died like small birds or mice.
Try cleaning the vent and hose.
