Dryer Vent Bird Guard 7"x7"x5" vent cover 🏠
Description:
This steel vent cover from cobatdna protects dryer and bathroom exhaust vents by blocking birds and small animals while preserving airflow. It fits 3" to 4" round exhaust outlets and has a compact 7" x 7" x 5" cage that keeps debris out, making it useful for exterior wall installations and laundry room exhausts.
Key Points
The galvanized metal cage resists rust and stands up to outdoor conditions, according to the manufacturer. Its open grid design allows dryer and bathroom vents to expel air with minimal restriction, while physically preventing birds, squirrels and other small animals from entering the duct. The unit comes in black and is sold as a single piece, so it can be installed where a discreet exterior protection is needed. Consider that heavy lint buildup in the cage may require periodic cleaning to maintain optimal airflow.

Usage Recommendations
Install the cage over the external exhaust grille using screws or appropriate fasteners for the wall material. For effective performance clean the unit regularly to remove accumulated lint and leaves, especially in high-traffic bird areas. If your dryer or vent has unusually high static pressure, monitor drying times after fitting this guard to confirm it does not affect performance.
Positive Aspects
The compact cage design offers a low-profile solution that blends with most exterior finishes and avoids large hood protrusions. It provides a physical barrier that reduces the chance of blockages caused by animal nests and can lower maintenance visits for pest removal. Lightweight and straightforward to mount, it suits homeowners seeking a practical way to protect vent openings without major modification. 🐦🔧
