Removing Pet Hair at Home

Removing Pet Hair at Home
Watermark

If you own a pet (or more), you're likely dealing with pet hair everywhere – on floors, furniture, even on yourself! But don't banish your furry family member to the doghouse. They shed, yes, but they deserve to be part of a loving home. As a caring pet parent, it's essential to know effective tricks for cleaning and removing pet fur. Here, we've compiled top methods to help you reclaim a fur-free home.

Pick Fur off Your Furniture 

To remove pet hair from furniture and upholstery, put on rubber gloves and glide your hands over the surfaces. The rubber acts like a fur magnet. Keep a bucket of water and a towel nearby to rinse and dry the gloves as needed. Slightly damp gloves are more effective at picking up hair. For wooden surfaces, use an anti-static dusting spray to make fur removal easier and prevent it from sticking again.

Say Hello to Your Original Floors Again

Vacuuming carpets often leaves pet hair behind. Instead, use a large pumice stone to gather fur into clumps, making it easier for the vacuum to pick up. A hard-bristled brush can also help loosen hair from carpets. For tiled or hardwood floors, use a dry microfiber or electrostatic mop to pick up most pet hair, then sweep or vacuum the rest.

Stop Wearing Fur

Before washing clothes, remove pet hair with a lint roller or put them in the dryer with a dryer sheet for 10 minutes to loosen hair. This prevents fur from sticking to clothes during washing. If you're heading out and notice pet hair on your outfit, use a lint roller for a quick fix.

Bring Out the Big Guns (Fur Removing Tools)

Visit a pet store for handy fur-removal tools like sticky rollers, electrostatic brushes, and special mitts. Rubber brooms designed for pet hair removal are great for floors and carpets. Consider investing in a pet hair vacuum for more thorough cleaning of both your pet and your home.

Remove Pet Hair Straight from the Source

Regularly brush and groom your pet outdoors to reduce indoor shedding by up to 80%. Use a pet brush or vacuum to remove loose hair. Bathing your pet with mild soap and brushing them after they dry will further minimize shedding around your home.

Conclusion

Effectively managing pet hair in your home requires a combination of practical techniques. Use rubber gloves to attract hair from furniture and upholstery, utilizing damp gloves for optimal results. Employ a pumice stone or hard-bristled brush on carpets to gather hair into clumps before vacuuming, and utilize dry mops for tiled or hardwood floors.

Prior to washing clothes, utilize lint rollers or dryer sheets to remove pet hair and prevent it from clinging during washing. Explore specialized tools like sticky rollers and pet hair vacuums available at pet stores for comprehensive fur removal. Lastly, regular outdoor grooming of your pet coupled with bathing and brushing helps minimize shedding indoors, ensuring a cleaner living environment.
