Simple Vacuum Tips for Homes with Pets
If you are a pet owner, then you are no stranger to dog hair and dander that can make your home an allergy zone for people with breathing issues. At the same time, all this hair on furniture and carpets can look unpleasant. So, let’s look at some useful vacuum tips for homes with pets. 1. Locate spots with pet hair There are places in your home where pet hair tends to collect. These places have a high static charge and less airflow. As a result, the pet hair gathers in these spots in a clump. These areas are usually located around floor lamps, your pet’s crate, laundry baskets, beds, sofas, and chairs. Pet hair can also collect under the door hinges and basements. 2. Invest in HEPA vacuum cleaners HEPA, short for high-efficiency particulate air, is a specialized vacuum cleaner that is designed specifically with filters that can suck dander from your furnishings. You can pair it with a dusting brush to get rid of these allergens. You can also look for handheld variants with HEPA filters. These devices can trap pet hair and clean even the smallest areas, like dog beds. Make sure that the vacuum you buy contains specific attachments to clean up the mess that your furry pets leave behind.
