I have found a unusual solution for finding those hard-to-find pins and needles that fall to the floor. I took a mop handle that I couldn't find a replacement sponge mop head for. I taped a magnet and fastened that where the sponge would go.Then you just wave over the floor and any pins and needles jump up to the needle.I can't bend over very well and I'm getting tired of stepping on the pins. This method really works,it sounds crazy, but it works.

OH! My DH has a tool out in the garage....it's like a mop only the whole head is magnet (for finding nails, etc.). It cost less than $15.00 at Home Depot. I think I'll go raid his garage! Good idea!
