Laundry fur and debris remover
Various implementations include a laundry fur remover. The laundry fur remover includes a body and one or more protrusions. The body has a body outer surface and a body maximum dimension. The one or more protrusions are coupled to and extend outwardly from the body outer surface. At least one of the one or more protrusions has a protrusion maximum dimension. At least a portion of the body or the one or more protrusions comprises a polymer. The body maximum dimension is greater than the protrusion maximum dimension.
