You don't have to use your own toothbrush though, make use of an old one, or grab a cheap one to get the job done.

And if you don't fancy using a toothbrush, another Mrs Hinch fan revealed that rubber gloves do the trick as well.

"Try a Marigold rubber glove they are great for removing hair, dandruff, fluff and stuff from your clothes," they wrote.
