How to Remove Pet Hair from Your Carpet

Pet hair is the most common problem in homes with long-furred pets. The fluffy animals leave traces everywhere they go, but upholstery furniture and carpets attract hair the most. The thing is, though, that these pieces of furniture are very vulnerable to damages and can't be cleaned very easily.

On the market you can find lots of products and tools for removing pet hair from upholstery and carpets, but some of these tools can damage the fabrics of your furniture. Here are a two tips from Cleaner London on how to remove pet hair from your carpet and how to reduce the amount of hair that fells from your animal to the minimum:

The way to reduce the amount of hair that fells from your pet is to brush it every day. Buy a special pet brush from a pet shop. There are such for cats and for dogs. Your animal might not like it in the beginning, but after a while it will get used to it and might even start to like it. Do not press too hard with the brush, so not to hurt your pet, and everything will be OK.

The easiest way to clean pet hair from a carpet according to Cleaner London is with a damp cloth or a damp clothes brush. Fill in a basin or bucket with water and dip the brush into it, it will absorb a lot of water, so you have to shake it off a little bit. Start rubbing the carpet in the direction of its fibres, but don't press too much, so not to damage them. Rub in one direction only, and dip the brush into the bucket from time to time. When you finish you'll have a big ball of hair at the end of your flooring. You can use the same technique for sofas and other upholstery furniture.
