The present invention relates to an improved disposable cleaning sheet for
removing debris, especially hair from a non-smooth or rough surface,
especially fibrous type surfaces such as carpeting or upholstery. The
cleaning sheets comprise a fibrous substrate and a plurality of
protrusions extending from strand elements embedded within fibrous
substrate. The cleaning sheets use the protrusions to dislodge the debris
from the surface being cleaned, and the fibrous substrate captures the
dislodged debris without a backing for the protrusions interfering with
the particle capture of the fibrous substrate. Further, the protrusions
are firmly embedded within the fibrous substrate such that they cannot be
dislodged from the substrate in use.
