Dispose of bushy hair — revolting! (3,2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mop up

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'dispose of' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'bushy hair revolting' is the wordplay.
'bushy hair' becomes 'mop' (I've seen this before. I am not sure about the 'bushy' bit.**).
'revolting' becomes 'up' (I've seen this in other clues).
'mop'+'up'='MOP-UP'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for mop up that I've seen before include "polish off" , "Deal with spillage or defeated enemy" , "take care of" , "Complete final stage (of a task)" , "Kill (enemy stragglers)" .)
