Cleaner
A cleaner is disclosed. The cleaner includes a winding member. The winding member is rotated in the cleaner to wind up thereon long and thin trash that can be compressed, such as animal hair, fibers, etc., which is introduced in a dust accommodation container. An attachable/detachable frame is accommodated in the cleaner to be detachable.
