Have you seen this Pin about squeegeeing your carpet for pet hair? I did and I got pretty excited. My dog sheds like crazy!! I never graduated to a bag-less vacuum cleaner. I'd like to, but mine still works and I see no point in replacing it...yet. Probably 80% off what I pick up with my vacuum is dog hair, so why not try this technique? I figure I'll be saving money by using less bags and I'll get a bit of an arm workout. Win-win!! This is also something that the kids can do. Triple win!!! Since I already own a couple of squeegees that I purchased from my local hardware store, this Pinteresting technique costed $ZERO$ to try out. We have to vacuum daily to collect the dog hair, so we had to wait till morning to try this hair removing technique. I have to say, it does work, to an extent. I still needed to vacuum, but I was able to pick up quite a bit of dog hair squeegeeing the carpet. I have Berber carpets and Shag. The squeegee technique definitely worked better on the Shag carpet, but again, we still needed to vacuum. i'm curious to see how much longer we can get a vacuum bag to last now.....I usually replace mine every 10-12 days or so, so I'll let ya know.
Yup, that's Pinteresting!
