Vacuum, broom, lint roller, duct tape, scrub brushes, and a dust buster. It's still all over, those things just make a dent :hair:
 
this is why i very much enjoy having my boys in their own room. all the poop, hay, dust, and hair stays contained in that room! lol. my vacuum does a good job of getting all the hair cleaned up off the chairs i have in there.

a dampened cloth, swiped in one direction only on furniture, works pretty good too, and is very cost effective (no cost!).
 
I use a sticky roll and a vacuum, and then one of those wet jet swiffer rip-offs to clean up the dust off the floor. Works wonders!
 
I guess I'm a bit lucky in some regards there. I don't have any furniture near them that I'm worried about hair on.
I don't think a lint roller thing would come close to being enough. I tried that before just to clean the pillow they slept on. Went through the whole thing very very fast.
I have tried those swiffer things to. They never seem to pick up a **** thing.
And i never liked the idea of a damp cloth near their cage. I'm always worried about them getting wet or something.
The vacuum may or may not work. But my chins absolutely hate the sound of it! Much less using it right in front of their cage.

You should see the inside of Houdinis make shift 'hammok' too. He always climbs in their to sleep. And as a result that thing has got a layer of hair that changes the fleeces color lol.
 
Im sick of the loose chin hair as well! Mine have their own room too but its still all over the place, lol.

Especially this time of year!

using a damp cloth near the cage isn't going to hurt your chins any. don't your floors get washed near/under their cages? same thing.
 
I run an air filter on high all the time in the chin room. It doesn't get rid of all the hair but makes a significant difference.
