[pyrnet] vacuum cleaner

[Karen Sigler <karen@benjaminfarms.com>]

   I find it is hard to have a one vacuum that does it all and a pain 
to drag it all around.  So we have several.  Also our house is kind of 
divided in half.  The carpet half is suppose to be avoided by my husband 
(during the day) and the animals.  The other half is tile and rock hard 
maple (the wood they use in bowling alleys) and the lower grade of wood 
because it is more varigrated and will not show marks as much.  The good 
vacuum is used on the carpets and furniture.... I find this also helps 
with smells.  Then I use an old vacuum on things like throw rugs,  the 
dog room.  Also we found a shop vacuum comes in handy,  especially the 
wet/dry,  for the really tough jobs.  Most shop vacuums and used vacuums 
can be purchased relatitively inexpensive, especially if you look at 
yard sales or thrift shops.
   Also if you are out looking for bargains..... I find looking for dog 
crates is alot less expensive that way.  I keep a small stock pile of 
various sizes, because they can make great transporters if you sell any 
animals- goats, lambs, ducks, chickens and those people need something 
to transport with.
