This is a disconnected dryer duct in a crawlspace. Look at all the lint. This is a common issue. It also, creates adding hot moist air to the crawlspace which leads to ventilation issues. Recommend repair.

Clogged/dirty ducts with covers. This screen should be removed to allow proper ventilation. The duct cover has flaps that are designed for dryer ducts. This is a fire hazard. I wonder how much lint is jammed in this dryer duct.
