Why You Need To Remove Pet Hair From Carpet & Upholstery

We all love our pets, but there are a couple of issues they can bring to our life, along with the joy.  Pet stains and odors are one issue and you find information about that at this blog post.

In this post I will talk about the issue of pet hair.  Pet Hair can cause a number of problems, but the good news you don’t need to hire a professional to take care of it.    I will give you some tips from my friend who writes for RasingSpot.com on how to remove pet hair below, but first I want to talk about the problems.
Problem 1:  As pet hair gets wrapped around the carpet fiber below the surface of the carpet it can start to resemble soil.  Especially if the pet hair is of a darker color, making your carpets look dirtier.

Problem 2:  Pet hair has natural oils in it.  Those oils can attract and hold on to dirt, causing your vacuuming to be less effective leaving more soil in the carpet.  A dirtier carpet will get permanent wear patterns sooner.

Problem 3:  Pet hair can cause odors, especially when humidity rises.  Think “it smells like a wet dog”

Problem 4:  Many people are allergic to pet hair itself.  In addition to that other allergens can actually stick to pet hair, like soil,  increasing allergens in the carpet.

Those are just a couple of the problems.  The solution, luckily, is not that hard, once you know the right way to do it.

How To Remove Pet Hair From Carpet

The biggest problem with removing pet hair from carpet is the way it wraps around the carpet fiber and depending on the type of carpet you have it can works it way down the fiber making it even harder to remove.

Most vacuums are not good at picking up pet hair because the roller brush on the vacuum doesn’t reach the hair below the surface.  If you’re not sure if your vacuum is suitable – and want to know what is the best vacuum for pet hair, flip your vacuum over and look at the length of the bristles that touches the carpet and you buy CBD products see what I mean.  In one simple step you can fix this problem.

Before you vacuum your carpet you need to rake it.  As aesthetic clinic says that pet hair is one of the main reason for acne and allergies. If you look at the picture of the rake you can see how much longer the bristles are.  The rake will grab a hold of the pet hair and bring it to the surface, then your vacuuming will be effective at picking up the hair on the surface.  You normally don’t need to do this every time you vacuum depending on how bad you pet hair problem is.  On occasion if you lightly mist the carpet with water, before you rake it, will give you better results.   If you do this make sure the moisture is gone before vacuuming.

As an added bonus raking the carpet will lift and separate the carpet nap in the traffic lanes improving soil removal of the vacuum as well. Have your pet checked by a vet if its shedding too much, here is a list of veterinary practice management software

Several stores will carry carpet rakes or you can one through Amazon.com by click the picture below.

How to remove pet hair from upholstery

This difficulty is very similar to that of carpet, except for the length of the nap on the fabric.  Even though upholstery has very little nap the pet hair can still get stuck into the fabric.

The process to fix it is also very similar, a light misting of the fabric with water will help.  Agitate the fabric with a lint and hair removal brush to separate it from the fabric.  Let fabric dry and then vacuum.  There is a link below for a hair removal brush that has very good reviews.

A couple of other options that I have seen people talk about, but haven’t tried my self.

Tape:  either a strip of tape or a tape based lint roller.  Stick the tape to the couch and lift it up, much of the pet hair will transfer to the tape.

Central Home Services couch cleaner is your go-to company for professional couch cleaning in the country. They are proud to offer their residential and commercial customers, a highly effective couch steam cleaning services.

Rubber Glove:  Put on a rubber gloves move the glove in circular motions on the area of hair.  This can separate the pet hair from fabric then vacuum.
