Tips On How To Remove Pet Hair From Clothes, Fabrics And Even Your Furnishings

We all love our furry little family members and couldn’t imagine life without them. However, what a delightful thought to imagine life without all that annoying pet hair. Here is a typical scenario. You are all dressed and ready for the workday ahead sporting your dressy slacks and shirt when all of a sudden you look down and notice that your pants are covered with dog hair and you have no time to choose a different work outfit. Surely pet hair can take away from your professional look and is, without a doubt, quite a nuisance to deal with. Don’t fret. The folks here at Jimmy’s Cleaners and Alterations have some useful tips to help remove pet hair from all your clothes and fabrics.

There are a few quick and easy tasks you can perform to remove pet hair from not only your clothing and fabrics, but from all your furniture and even your rugs as well. For starters, you can simply use a fresh new lint roller and brush it downwards over your clothes, sofa or other fabrics. This is the ideal tip to use when you are heading out the door for work and have detected this annoying problem.

Next, we suggest you use moisture. Water will make pet hair heavier, which then minimizes how much it will stick to fabrics of any type. There are a couple of tips on how to use moisture beginning with the ever-popular rubber gloves. Put on a pair of rubber gloves, saturate them with water, shaking off the excess, and then simply rub your clothing, fabrics, sofa or other items with the rubber gloves. When performing this simple task, you will accumulate balls of pet hair in your hands.

In addition, you can try using a damp sponge to wipe away the unwanted pet hair. You can further use a spray bottle and spray your clothes and furnishings lightly with water and a fabric softener mixture and then gently wipe it away. Along this line you can use a full-length sponge mop to remove pet hair from your carpets and floors, but be sure you vacuum them in advance of this procedure.

Last but definitely not least, and where the experts here at Jimmy’s Cleaners come in, dry cleaning is the best all round process to use for the removal of pet hair. It is not only fool proof and will remove all those annoying hairs, but dry cleaning will also give focus to dander, which is the biggest culprit when it comes to allergies.
