Very few people can compare to the companionship provided by your favorite pet, but of course, like with any other relationship – there are of course some issues you must work through as a pet owner. There’s the messes that will undoubtedly be made when they run and scamper through the house, tracking mud from the backyard or spilling over that regrettably placed can of soda. And there is always the fact that pretty much everyone you meet, knows instantly that you’re a pet owner, from the array of hair spread across your favorite black peacoat during winter. Or even when that pet hair has made its way all around your couch and even the dining room table – your cats favorite afternoon nap spot while you’re sitting at work! As NYC’s top rated laundry service, the team at Aplus has got you covered, with a few of the best tips to fight off pet hair in your life.
· Vacuuming Correctly
While this might not be a laundry service tip exactly, we thought wed include it anyway as it is vital to getting your life hair free. Buy the right vacuum – something that specifically advertises that it works on deep carpets and can lift pet hair. This is a popular problem that a lot of people have, and vacuum makers know it. Some of the higher end ones can definitely be expensive, but there are plenty of options out there in every price range. Use the attachments along your fabric furniture. This is important as much of the pet hair transfer to our clothes occurs when we site down on the couch.
· Brush Your Pets
The vast majority of cats and dogs will shed, no matter what you do. And when you’ve got a pet that’s shedding it will get all over your house, clothes and your life. When you brush them, it not only feels amazing for them, but you can get their hair off without it falling all over the house, in one sitting, all on your own time. Do this as often as your pet seems to shed.
· Vinegar
Vinegar is the secret weapon the laundry service world, everyone knows – the secret has been out. But a little known use of vinegar is to keep pet hair off your clothing! One of the biggest ways that pet hair can get on your clothing is from the wash. And because vinegar reduces static cling, it may help to release any leftover pet hair from clothing.
· Clean Your Washing Machine
As we said, the washing machine often transfers a ton of pet hair to clothing. The best thing to do, is to clean your washing machine. Run an empty wash cycle, without any clothing in it – just add a slight bit of detergent and some fabric softener. And after words, give it a quick wipe down and try to use a lint roller in certain crevices. It will work wonders!
