Adjusting shredded latex pillows = one of the biggest nightmares I've ever seen

I tried adusting my new shredded latex pillows.  I was advised to simply take out the latex until I reach the desired firmness. That sounded simple enough.

What I didn't count on was that this activity would turn my home into a catastrophe. Latex got EVERYWHERE! 

All over my floor, and bed, and clothes.  It's very sticky too.  It is quite difficult to get off my clothes.  Using a broom and dustpan is highly ineffective and cleaning it up, and it sticks to them too.    Also, when i try to discard the contents of the dustpan, chunks of the latex blow back out onto the floor.

This is a freakin' nightmare.  I wish I would have known this before I started taking out shredded latex.  Had I known this would happen, I would have went over to the house of my worst enemy, and performed this activity there.

I do not own a vacuum cleaner but I might have to buy one exclusively to try to deal with this problem.

Will a vacuum cleaner have difficulties sucking up insane amounts of shredded latex?sad
