Microbeads: DIY Tip

June 26, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Did you ever spill microbeads everywhere? From a pillow or stuffed animal? These things are super charged with static and highly affectionate with their light weight. Well, my puppy has torn apart a pillow I bought second-hand [not such great quality] and managed to get microbeads all over my bed while I slept.

Here is how this problem will be solved.

  • First – Spray. Spray beads with anti-cling spray, soap, lotion; anything heavy that would kill static.
  • Thick tape. Wrap the tape around your hand with the sticky part outside, and pat them up, throw away.
  • Hand held vacuum cleaner, preferably with disposable bag.

I’m wishing myself, and anyone that may have to experience this god-awful clean-up project, all the best of luck.

Oh yes – Shower immediately and spray yourself with (safe) anti cling spray! This stuff is worse than sand!
