A method for collecting and therefor separating sink debris from other in-sink contents (dishes for example) and allow for liquids to drain simultaneously into the sink drain hole. This method is completed by installing a sink debris collection and transfer apparatus utilizing in-sink physical space. The method of installation and use of such apparatus is disclosed.

Systems, methods, and techniques for cleaning sinks and dishes are provided. In some embodiments, a cleaning system comprises at least one fluid supply, at least one opening in a side wall of a sink basin, and at least one nozzle positioned along an exterior of the sink basin. The nozzle is configured to receive fluid from the fluid supply, and dispense fluid through an opening in a side wall of the sink basin to an interior surface of the sink basin. In some embodiments, the nozzle is configured to dispense fluid to the interior of a sink basin, such that substantially all surfaces of the interior of the sink basin are covered with a thin layer of fluid. In some embodiments, nozzle dispensing angle, duration of a cleaning cycle, flow rate or amount of dispensing fluid, or activation of a cleaning cycle may be manually or automatically controlled.

The present invention relates to a cover for a drain which traps hair or other debris traveling with water or other liquids down the drain. In most embodiments the drain cover comprises an outer and inner perimeter with one or more slits cut from the outer perimeter towards the inner perimeter. The shape and design of the drain cover allows it to cover any drain type, whether the grate is level with the bottom of the receptacle, recessed into the bottom of the receptacle, or whether a stopper sticks up from the bottom of the receptacle. In many embodiments the drain cover also comprises gaps for allowing water to flow through and projections for catching the hair or other debris.

A loose hair capture or entrapment device designed to be especially effective in showers is disclosed. The device easily and safely captures and retains loose hair, which can be later readily removed and disposed. The device is meant to provide a means for preventing loose hair from falling into and clogging shower and tub drains. The device has a plurality of substantially opposing flexible pillars with a space or gap separating the opposing pillar ends. The plurality of opposing pillars may be tilted or angled in one direction such that by swiping one's hand or finger in a direction opposite to the pillar tilt reduces the gap dimension and tends to trap loose hair, while swiping one's hand in the direction of the pillar tilt increase the gap dimension and allows the loose hair to be removed for proper disposal.
