We all know that pets can be a huge pain when it comes to hair. As much as we love them, they leave behind an endless amount of fur and dander in their wake. The constant shedding is something that we’ve come to accept as a price of owning a pet, but really that may not always be the case.
A major problem with pet hair is that it gets everywhere, sticking to clothes, furniture, carpets, and floors. It's also really difficult to clean off once it has accumulated on your home's flooring or clothing. That being said, there are methods which will allow for the proper removal of pet hair. This article will discuss some common types of pet hair removers and provide some tips for keeping your home tidy.
How to Keep Pet Hair From Getting Out of Control?
There are many different ways to remove pet hair from your home. One popular option is a vacuum cleaner, which has been one of the most commonly used methods of removing it for years now. The downside to this method is that often you'll need to clean out your vacuum bag or filter more frequently if you have pets in the house and want them removed completely; otherwise, they just get pulled back into the air when you turn on the machine again!
When considering using a vacuum cleaner as an option, make sure that it's powerful enough so that even deep pile carpeting can be picked up with ease. Another great way to tackle all those pesky hairs left behind by our furry friends is with specialized tools such as lint brushes and pet groomers.
You can also find a great variety of other popular products to use, ranging from chemical-free cleaners specially designed for removing hairs, electrostatic fabric protectors or sheets as well!
Types of Pet Hair Removers
Pet hair removal is completed in several different methods. Some of these include:
- Vacuum: The vacuum is one of the most popular pet hair removers as well! It's perfect for those who don't want to use chemicals and are just looking for a quick fix. Keep in mind that you will need a vacuum cleaner with plenty of power if your carpeting has deep piles, or else all it does is pull the hairs back into the air when turned on again.
- Chemical Free Cleaners: These cleaners can be used either after vacuuming or on their own depending on what type of surface needs cleaning. They're chemical-free, so great for people wanting an eco-friendly option or sensitive skin types like babies and toddlers. Be sure to test these products out before using them, though, because some people can get allergic reactions.
- Pets: If your pet is small, such as a cat or dog, let them clean with their furry paws! Cats will love the attention, and dogs are good at digging in deep for all those tiny hairs that we don't see on the surface of our carpets.
- Dryers: Dryer sheets also work well to remove any excess hair from your clothes before they're hung up again - be sure not to over-dry anything as this can damage clothing fibers which could leave lint behind after it's dry.
- Lint Roller: Lint rollers are handy to quickly remove pet hair off clothes or upholstery in areas where vacuuming cannot reach, such as small crevices, corners, or edges on furniture that has been pushed back against a wall.
Keeping Your Home Clean
The best way to keep your home clean is by having a routine deep cleaning. Try doing this every few months or once per year, depending on the number of pets you have and the frequency that they shed their fur.
- Cat Litter Box: If there are cats in the house, ensure that everyone knows where to find the litter box, so it's not just being used as a scratching post for them!
- Dog Beds: Ensure there are enough dog beds available for all family members with different needs (hot/cold weather, allergies). When selecting new pet bedding, always consider what materials will be most comfortable for you and your pets before buying anything from wool to memory foam options.
- Pet Hair Remover Options: A great option is to use a vacuum cleaner. Make sure it has some type of pet hair attachment to get the most out of this tool. Other options come with different attachments, such as brushes, tools for removing pet hair from furniture, and more!
There are many different options available for keeping your home clean and free of the excess hair left behind by our beloved pets. You need to be sure you're armed with enough knowledge on which one will work best for you before investing in anything; otherwise, they'll end up being nothing but an expensive waste of money!
