5 Easy Tips for Removing Pet Hair from Clothes and Furniture

Luckily, we’ve got you covered. Here are five tried-and-tested ways to remove pet hair from your clothes, furniture, and around your home, so you can keep things looking (and feeling) fur-free.

Use rubber gloves to lift pet hair

These yellow gloves are very handy with getting those pesky pet hairs off of your rugs and sofas! Put them on and lightly dampen them, then run them over the fabric of your furniture. The friction from the glove will lift the hair from the surface and leave it squeaky clean.

Try a damp sponge

Another item from the washing-up bowl which works wonders! Similar to the rubber gloves, lightly dampen your sponge and then wipe it over the piece of clothing or furniture that is covered in hairs. This will remove any unwanted sheds of fur and make them look as good as new.

Keep a lint roller in your bag

These are particularly handy when you’re in a rush. Pop them into your bag when you’re on the go and if you spot some fur on your sleeve, just run the roller over the patch to remove it. You can find these in a number of clothing shops and supermarkets for next to nothing!

Sweep carpets with a rubber broom

No need to fret about cat or dog hairs on your carpet! The rubber bristles will pull the engrained hairs from your carpet or rug and leave it looking spick and span.

Use sticky tape for emergency clean-ups

Very simple but very helpful! Wrap some sellotape around your hands and then apply the sticky side to the unwanted hair to remove it. Perfect for if you’re at work or on the go!
