Pet Hair Remover
Got fur? On everything? So did the creators of the FurZapper, a reusable laundry tool that works in the washer and dryer to grab fur, lint, and dander off clothes, vehicle seat covers, towels, and just about any fabric you toss in. The flexible, tacky surface of the product temporarily captures pet fur. It then releases it into the wash water to be flushed down the drain or into the dryer lint filter. A two-pack sells for $14.99.
