Default Dog Hair in the back windshield area - ideas of removal?

So I let a dog travel with us once with the back seats covered so he wouldn't scratch them, but I totally forgot about the carpeted area just behind the rear head rests.

I have dog hair all over there and it's very difficult to get too with a vacuum, any ideas of how to remove? I was thinking something sticky or tacky that I can just pat down the area with?

The hardest area is where the rear windshield meets the carpet. I have the same issue from the previous owner..

Vacuum and extension if needed. Been doing this for years just to pull the dust out.

Reduce quantity of *****s given to 0? Or compressed air to blow it out.

Take it to the dealer...I think this is covered under a service bulletin.
