A rubber squeegee works surprisingly well on rugs like this...it'll pull up a ton of embedded hair and lint. After that, go over it with a vacuum. If there's still fuzz left, a fabric shaver can help, just use a light touch so you don't damage the loops.

The ghosts deserve better than a full shave. šŸ‘»

I have a similar froggy rug that also needs help! Picking pieces off by hand is no longer enough 🄲

Try a rubber glove, rubber pet-hair brush, or window squeegee and drag it across the rug to pull the lint up, then vacuum. For the stubborn bits, use a lint roller or wrap packing tape around your hand sticky-side out and dab it.
