This attaches to the nozzle end of most vacuum cleaners, including both regular vacuums and handhelds.

You can also use a regular vacuum cleaner hose by attaching a straw to a crevice tool with painter's tape. This doesn't work as well as the mini kit, but not too bad.
I tried the straw with packing tape on my mini vacuum and it worked! I could flatten the end of the straw to get it waaay down there where even light does not reach. Not as strong suction as without it but I still filled my little filter area with sewing machine dust bunnies! YAY! THANK YOU,
