How can we stop our dryer hose from coming out of the back of the dryer?

Our dryer hose that blasts the hot air away from the dryer keeps falling out of the back of our dryer. The other end of course is connected to the wall and shoots hot air outside, that is not too much of a problem. But do any of you have ideas for sticking that hose, and keeping it there, to the back of the dryer. I hesitate to use tape or glue because it gets very hot right there. Thanks.

1. They sell clamps at home depot for it.
2. Use a dryer clamp! it's made out of metal , you can get them in the hardwear store,
3. you should be able to use duct tape-good quality-to attach it. If you have forced air heat, look at the tape that's on the seams there for an idea of what to look for in a quality tape. Aluminum duct tape will withstand the heat.
4. I just did this. Buy a new hose and clamp. They are only about $9 and it has saved me so much hassle of messing with the old hose and clamp. The tape melts on and glue made noxious fumes.
5. duct tape is made to handle the heat. If you dont' want to use duct tape, the next best solution is a zip tie. zip ties work much better than the screw type metal clamps. The worst solution is those spring type metal clamps.
6. Here is a link to one from Ace Hardware. It's just $2.99 and makes your life a whole lot easier. It is less messy than duct tape would be and should last quite a bit longer as well.
7. get a clamp, easy to install Be Blessed!
8. You can get a clamp from the hardware store or walmart for the dryer hose..
