Can you vacuum grass?

This is a daft question I know but let me explain - we have rabbits and yesterday I moved their hutch and run to another part of the garden so the ground can recover and they get some lovely new lawn to munch on. The area they have vacated is full of straw bits and hundreds of little shards of plastic they have chewed off their rabbit tunnel. I could painstakingly rack / brush the worst of it up but I have a cordless Dyson thingy. Could I use that or do I risk destroying it if I get wet stuff in it?) I have a history of totalling household equipment - using under powered hand mixers for Christmas cake ... that sort of thing!

You probably can. I wouldnt laugh. Much.

I used to open the front door and vacuem the large door mat, and sometimes the porch and walk. My daughters were embarrassed and my neighbor thought i was weird. But, clean mat, porch, and walk. Go for it.

You can actually buy garden vacs. Like a leaf blower but with a suck setting as well as a blow setting.

(See earlier thread for vacs etc).

I don't think James Dyson would be too happy; maybe if grass is dry?

For a tough kitchen mixer, none better than VitaMix (nor more expensive, unfortunately.)

My neighbour uses as regular vacuum cleaner to hoover her driveway...every single day. Can't help with your question but thought you might like to know there is someone weirder than you Grin
