How to get dog hair out of automotive carpet?
I just bought a car that has like 100lbs of dog hair in it. Can anybody share some tips for getting it out of there?

Re: How to get dog hair out of automotive carpet?
i rode a friend and her Jack Russell terrier in my car once, and was picking those porcupine-quill-like hairs out of my car for years afterwards.
i dunno, vacuum real good, then roll some duct tape up on your hand sticky-side out and go to town?

Dyson DC-17 Absolute Animal with the spinning brush hose attachment.
It'll slap your wallet, but it'll blow your mind.

the Shark vacs are trash. Had one once and hated it so much I trashed it.
The duct tape idea was what came to my head.

I agree. The Shark vacuums are awful!

One of our cars had some hair, a vacuum won't pull the hair out of the fabric. Tape worked very well. Give the interior a bikini wax

I went with the duct tape method. I worked on it for about 6 hours. It's about 70% better than it was.

Do I get a discount? All I would do is add more fur. That's what you get with having 4 dogs.

My wife would be completely allergic to that car. I wonder if that would be a bad thing or a good thing.
