I've tried recording,editing multiple recordings, understanding other forum posts, the kutools vba is useless.

The sheet is called "Columns"; column G has a header and the number of rows occupied will vary.

There are 19 If the cell begins with "x" delete the rows These keywords will stay the same.

I need this in the middle of a bigger macro- something i've made for my work; its not "elegant" and too long to paste here-

Loops are beyond my understanding and ive not been able to just paste one in the middle of a macro successfully.

Any help is appreciated.

1 If cell in column G begins with tiger delete these rows
2 If cell in column G begins with bear delete these rows
...
19 If cell in column G begins with rat delete these rows

Columns A-I are occupied if that's relevant. I recorded data filter ect but I couldnt get it to do all 19 successfully.

On another sheet (I've called it List) in A1 put the header of the column you want to filter.
Underneath that put the 19 values & run this
Code:
Sub Macro4()
   With Sheets("[COLOR=#ff0000]Sheet1[/COLOR]")
      .Range("A1").CurrentRegion.AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterInPlace, CriteriaRange:= _
         Sheets("[COLOR=#ff0000]List[/COLOR]").Range("A1:A20"), Unique:=False
      .Range("A1").CurrentRegion.Offset(1).EntireRow.Delete
      .ShowAllData
   End With
End Sub
Change sheet names to suit
