Northern Nevada homes contributed to a world record-breaking ball of lint. Franchises with Dryer Vent Wizard from all over the country sent their dryer lint to company headquarters this summer to make a 690-pound ball of lint. It was then set on fire to raise awareness about dryer fires. 

Experts say dryers cause more than 15,000 fires every year in the United States. 

An investigation is now underway after a fire destroyed a home in Stagecoach on Tuesday night.
