What is a good pooper scooper

Someone once told me a dustpan and brush but with a pair of old tights over the brush. I think it stops the brush wrecking the fleece with its bristles.
 
If you go into the ASDA in the electrical bit, they have a hand held vacuum think it's like £14 or something, best thing i've ever bought !
 
My girls are on fleece and I use a hand held vacuum. Best thing I ever bought and does the job in half the time. x
 
I was interested in the handheld vaccume but are they strong enough to get all the bits out for that cheap? Might be an option if they are.


I might have a look at a cat litter scooper though, since they are cheap and all

I used a sock over my brush today as I don't wear tights. Unfortunately my bf misheard me and gave me one of his current clean socks rather than an old one :S

I would agree with the dustbuster thing too.
I have this one

It's pretty awesome for my small flat, I use it for that as well as the guineas (although it does sook the correx up from the floor)

And this

It's not great but good for getting up hay dust and doesn't make so much noise that it will scare the boys.
 
For spot checks - Yeo Valley yoghurt pots (empty of course, which means you get a yummy treat of yoghurt before too!)

Weird I know, but the shape and the lip at the top means that it doesn't crush the poop and gets all the dusty bits everywhere! :)>>>
 
The hoover does the job in no time having 18 piggies to clean out twice a day :(|) The bag is cloth, washed regularly and occasionally spritz inside it with air freshener - makes the whole room smell nice as I can't spray anything direct in the lounge because of the piggies :))
 
I use a small plastic trowel from a childs gardening set. Its deep enough so that you can scoop a considerable amount if you want to and it has a pointed tip which is great for getting into corners and scooping individual poops when spot cleaning :)
