to get out grit, gravel and pet hair...
...I usually take the Kirby massage cup and "scrub" the floor carpets in a circular motion. It even can get out sticky hay strands and needles from a christmas tree (unless they are really "woven in"). Its little teeth poke the stuff out, yet the vinyl material is soft enough not to damage anything.
Really "el cheapo", but it works! (of course, to massage your scalp with it as given in the user manual, you might want to buy a second one, LOL)
