  • Patent number: 6611961
    Abstract: A mit designed to contemporaneously retrieve and store waste debris for ultimate disposal. The mit is divided into a hand portion and a heel portion that are integrated along a flared portion. The hand portion consists of finger sections that correspond to each of the finger tips of a hand. The hand portion flares inwardly toward the heel portion which then flares outwardly, in a direction opposite the finger sections, to terminate in a base. The mit is used to collect or retrieve waste debris and is then reversed into a tieable bag to secure the waste debris for ultimate disposal. Located at the base are two ties to secure the waste debris within the resulting bag that is formed from the reversibility of the mit.
