Getting pet hairs off furniture carpet etc,

Quite right dalrymple

Shell: Don't bother! Dogs are hairy shedding creatures - I have three. Just give guests a clothes brush on the way out!

I used to wonder why ‘For Sale’ sites said ‘from a pet free home’.

I suppose that’s why.

I strongly recommend one of these; don’t be tempted to buy a cheaper version.
From the long River company,
it was recommended to me and I’ve used them ever since for furniture and mats.

I use a small rubber brush and follow up with our Miele vacuum with the turbo brush head attachment. A rubber glove also works to gather up the hair before vacuuming.
