are joking." It's not easy to sweep a chimney that has a woodburner in it.
It must be possible, though.

Does your chimney have a liner?
You could ask a local wood stove company if they can recommend a chimney sweep - they should be able to tell you one who is used to working with stoves.
But yes, you do need to get your chimney swept. Remember a stove burns much hotter than an open fire, with correspondingly greater risk of a chimney fire.
