6 Cleaning Tips for Pet Owners

May 17, 2018

#1 Clean Up Clingy Pet Hair

Pet hair has a tendency to cling to almost every surface, especially furniture. Instead of hauling out the vacuum, you can collect and remove pet hair from upholstery by running a squeegee or latex rubber gloves over the fabric’s surface.

#2 Brush Outside

Prevention is the best way to reduce the shedding messes. Be sure to brush your pet often to better control shedding messes. Try heading outside next time you groom. The pet hair just blows away, so no clean up needed!

#3 Use a Pet Placemat

Putting a placemat underneath your pet’s food and water bowl will help collect the mess, stop it from spreading and prevent it from getting tracked throughout the rest of the house, especially if you have an extra messy eater!

#4 Use Reusable Mops

Having a pet means you’ll probably have many messes.  A reusable and washable mop head is essential for the continuous cleanup, plus it’s easier on your wallet. Mops with washable heads like our Wonder Mop and our Tornado Mop provide a great solution for the bigger messes that require a little more time and attention.

#5 It’s All About Microfiber

Dust, dirt, and dander build up quickly. Be sure to use microfiber material when you are cleaning surfaces and hard floors to pick up and hold more dust and hair than regular tools. Our Microfiber Cloths and our Microfiber Dust Mop is great for dust and pet hair cleanup– and it’s machine washable.

#6 Lint Roller For On The Go

Lint rollers are a perfect way to quickly get rid of pet hair when you are headed to the office or out and about. Be sure to keep a few around the house or one in your car for last-minute cleanup. Linter rollers can also be used to dust upholstery in your car and lampshades around the house!
