A kit and method of cleaning a barbeque grill that includes engaging a heat-resistant cloth about a support member of a grill brush; absorbing a quantity of liquid with the heat-resistant cloth; placing the brush with heat-resistant cloth engaged onto previously-heated grill bars of the barbeque grill; generating steam as the quantity of liquid is heated by the grill bars; moving the brush with heat-resistant cloth thereon back and forth along the grill bars; removing food matter and grease from the grill bars; and transferring the removed food matter and grease to the heat-resistant cloth. The removal of food matter and grease is accomplished by a combination of the generated steam and the moving of the brush with heat-resistant cloth thereon back and forth along the grill bars. After use, the heat-resistant cloth is disengaged from the brush and may be washed and reused one or more times.

A dental cleaning device, including a main body to facilitate gripping thereof, a plurality of bristles disposed on at least a portion of a first end of the main body to facilitate brushing of at least one tooth, and a floss compartment disposed within at least a portion of a second end of the main body, the floss compartment including a floss roll to coil a line of floss, a floss dispensing aperture connected to the floss roll to receive the line of floss therethrough from the floss roll, and a blade disposed around the floss dispensing aperture to cut the line of floss.

A pet hair removal apparatus has a plurality of engagement members. The apparatus has a handle and connected base member. At the end of the handle is a pointed end defined by a pointed tip. The pointed end and pointed tip operates in an operational engagement position to remove pet hair from the surface of an inanimate object, such as a couch or other fabric. The pointed end removes hair or other debris that are in or near a crease or crevice of the fabric. This operational engagement position is one of a number of other operational engagement positions for the pet hair removal apparatus.

A pet hair removal apparatus has a plurality of engagement members. The apparatus has a handle and connected base member. On the base member is one or more engagement members, such as lugs, protrusions or frustums. On the lower surface of one of the engagement members is one or more striations, ribs, squeegees or ridges. The striations, ribs, squeegees or ridges operate in an operational engagement position to remove pet hair from the surface of an inanimate object, such as a couch or other fabric. This operational engagement position for the striations, ribs, squeegees or ridges is one of a number of other operational engagement positions for the pet hair removal apparatus.

Provided is a method for manufacturing a sheet for use in a tongue plaque cleaner, capable of reliably cutting loops of thread members provided at a given density, and forming thread members each having a shape with an arc portion sufficient enough to scrape off tongue plaque, through steps that are simple, low-cost and suitable for mass production. A method for manufacturing a sheet 1 for use in a tongue plaque cleaner for scraping off tongue plaque, includes: a step of heating a sheet material having multiple looped thread members 2 protruding from one surface of the sheet material, at a temperature below the melting point of the thread members 2; and a step of forming first thread members 3, 8 and second thread members 4, 9 by cutting loops of the thread members 2 heated.
