ABSTRACT:
A carpet sweeper for removing metallic staples, paper clips and the like from carpet wherein a semi-circular wire mesh fabric is secured to the forward end of a housing or base member and a magnet is secured to the bottom of the base member and extends along the trailing edge of the wire mesh fabric. The wire mesh fabric dislodges the metallic fasteners from the carpet and the magnet attracts and accumulates the dislodged fasteners. A scraper is removably mounted on the housing for removing the accumulated fasteners from the surface of the magnet, and a rod having a slotted magnetic end is provided for manually removing deeply embedded metallic fasteners from the carpet.
