Washing-up Gloves to remove pet hair from furniture

Testee

I don't know whether anyone else saw this - I watched Anthea Turner's Perfect Housewife show last week (yes sad I know but it passed the time whilst ironing). Anyway she suggested this great way of removing pet hair from fabric - put on your rubber washing-up gloves, run them under the tap and brush at the hair. The combination of damp and the rubber picks up the pet hair, works brilliantly.

I have used this method for years so its not new and AT certainly was not the inventor of it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I cannot remember where I first picked it up from but started doing it when we had a beautifil Irish Setter called Cleamie........boy did she moult, I had our suite covered in Cleamie coloured draylon so you could not see the hair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It works on chinese wool rugs too - my cat Stanley just rolls about all day on the green rug, which ends up with black & white fur all over it!

I used to have loads of problem with hair on the furniture from my 3 cats. But I got one of those gloves with a plastic, bobbled hand on them from Morrisons for about 80p to groom them with. This worked so much better than anything I've used before and I only have to vac every few days now.
