Hey George...
I've used the dust buster and the tape-lint rollers before.
Sometimes with sucess....

.. but where does a sigle guy like you get hose?

David
When you lose micros in the carpet use a dust buster and take the
bag out  and put on a cut pantie hose.
I lose a lot of micro shark teeth in my fossil room. Then dump what you
get out into a dish and you have your shells back.
