A real Christmas tree creates a unique festive atmosphere in the house thanks to the smell of pine needles.

Otherwise, you will have to think more than once before heading to the Christmas tree market. An unsuccessful purchase can lead to the fact that needles will fall from the New Year's beauty onto the floor and spread throughout the entire apartment.

Constant cleaning can put a damper on the holidays. But if only that were all. If the tree is going to be on a carpet, you'll need to figure out how to pick up the needles from the pile.

Here are some life hacks for this case.

A robot vacuum cleaner is definitely not a helper in this case. Only a full-fledged machine can cope with the task. But it is easier to do it this way.

1. Sticky roller

A lint roller will do the job of removing needles from your carpet. However, it is not the best option for fluffy carpets and long pile.

2. Scotch tape

Tear off a piece of suitable length and simply glue it to the carpet where the needles have scattered.

3. Brush

This is an option for cleaning a carpet with a long pile, when the needles get stuck somewhere deep in the depths of the carpet. Sweep the needles onto the floor or help with a vacuum cleaner.

But to avoid wasting precious time cleaning, simply lay a film on the carpet under the tree or place the tree on the floor.

It will be easier to remove litter from laminate or linoleum than from carpet.
