I first pick up the bigger stuff by hand and then use a regular vacume cleaner but mine has a hose so it can go any where. Also I am pretty consistent about putting snipped threads in a little baggie or the trash. this helps alot. sometimes when I have friends they just make it all go air born and I noticed that adds tremendously to the mesh. I guess I am more consisten about putting it in a baggie since I need to clean it up. LOL I have wood flooring and big area rugs.

I bought a Roomba, robot vacuum cleaner on CraigsList to try on our carpets and hard floors.
It isn't perfect but, as my DH says "Anything IT picks up is better than nothing."
I start it on its cleaning mission each day, when I leave the house. I runs until the battery runs down. I empty it and recharge it when I return.

I too have wood floors in my new place, so I just roll the new cheapy bagless Bissell in and take the narrow crevice tool and whisk the mess up, take it out and let the breezes take it to where the birdies can pick it for their nests. They are great American Pickers, doncha know.
