Hi all,

I am going to have this dillema myself and I was wondering about cheese cloth or screen? (plastic of course)

I tried to put pantyhose over the cutout opening, but I ended up with a salt encrusted peice of panty hose. I also had a problem with the salt in combination wtih the panty hose giving off a semi-burning smell when my MH is on.

I like dogs, especially when they are somewhere else

just kidding I don't feel I have enuf room for a dog so I won't have one. I do have a cat though and I never have a problem with its hair. But I do have a older daughter and I am finding hair all over the house from that pet but the wife won't let me put her down

I run a humidifyer in the room which I find helps keep alot of the stray hair out of the tank. Where would I go to find something like what you suggested?

i think i bought it at target. dalmation hair is a problem, it is really pointy and sticks into everything, vacuuming doesn’t really help. my friend has 2 of them and she’s ripping her hair out over them. great dogs but too much energy and hair.

Its not bad all the time, but sometimes its especially horrible, you can pull clumps from my dog. Its only a problem when her skin gets irritated and then she sheds, millions of hairs EVERYWHERE!

I'm going to start looking around for one tomorrow when I get paid! Thanks for the suggestion I just hope it helps!

keep in mind that it will only pull stuff out of the air if it's actually airbourn. so if it's stuck in the carpet it's staying there.

i dunno if you have ever considered it but ive pulled most of the carpet out of the house and replace it with tile and hardweed. its great as now you can just sweep up what you see daily, it's way better!

(sorry - couldn't help myself...)
