How to remove pines from synthetic grass?

Hello all

Our neighbour had a huge pine tree and its always covering our synthetic grass with pines and none of our brushes remove them. Anyone suggest a brush that will do?

    Vacuuming fake grass is definitely a thing.

    Get a leaf blower and then you can get the needles to some place easier to sweep up.

    Or if you're feeling lazy...

    Is it really a pine tree, not a conifer?

    It's really important to know the exact species of tree you are cussin'.

    Leyland cypress? Thuja?
     The constant dry and hot weather is breaking up the foliage. Wind or heavy rain, whichever comes next will bring more down but an old hoover will do it for now.
    Some charity shops have them.
