After reading all the posts about the Plastic Bugs eating those parts as they hit the floor, I vowed it would not happen to me again. That didn't last long. A very tiny part hit the rug yesterday afternoon and after searching for 15 minutes, I remembered reading something in FSM about taping a piece of womens nylon stockings to the end of a vacuum cleaner nozzle. As there was no hope of getting a replacement part, I gave it a try. IT ACTUALLY WORKED and only took about 10 minutes. The vacuum sucked it up and the nylon stocking held it neatly at the head of the nozzle. ONE BUG DEFEATED, millions to go......
