Why not put the thread on the table first before spraying, or cup it in your
hand. The idea of rubbing the thread with your fingers after spraying them
is a good one. However, I agree with you, the floss works quite well. Also,
about the hair spray, it depends on the type being used. I think you need
something like, aqua Net, that almost cements the hair 
In place.

I just read an idea on StumbleUpon.  It suggested using hairspray to spray
the ends of your thread.  This will stiffen it and help you thread a needle
easier.  I did try this out and did get it to work.  I had trouble getting
the end of the thread sprayed because the thread kept moving from the breeze
of the spray.  I took the lid off the hairspray and used my fingertips to
apply the hairspray.

I still like the dental floss threaders better, but it might help others.
