If he's a decent butler, you shouldn't have to tell him. If he's not cleaning up your toenail clippings, fire him and find a better one with a better eye for detail.

If you have a butler, (which I doubt) then you would know how to properly address him concerning your toenail clippings.

Detritus springs to mind after 'toenail clippings'
Butler,please clean up my detritus-quickly or I shall beat you within an inch of your life you 'orrible serf.

One is expected to pick them up oneself, hence a term does not exist.

I would refer to them as bodily or perhaps calcified detritus. That seems suitable snooty!

Mum says, "Hudson, there appears to be some shavings on one's shag! Remove them pronto!"

If they are one's own clippings it is referred to as "excess pedo-calcium detritus". As in "Jeeves... please remove the excess pedo-calcium detritus on the floor near my smoking jacket".
