Default Dryer vent condensation

I have a metal vent pipe about 1 ft. long going from the dryer, to a
dryer vent hookup made of metal flashing and a plastic flapper. My
problem is that I have condensation on the outide surface on the 1 ft.
metal pipe inside the house, and it turns to ice in the winter. I would
like to insulate this pipe.Can I use ordinary unbacked inulation and
then wrap with duct tape? If not ,what can be used to insulate the pipe.
Thank You
