How to remove pet hair from clothes

Dogs and cats shed a lot and you're going to have fur in your home and on your clothes. Nobody wants to be covered in dog hair, no matter how much you love your dog. These are the ways to get rid of it!

1. Lint Rollers

A lint roller is often best for removing pet hair. But if you don’t have one then use can use packaging tape instead. All you need to do is wrap the tape around your hand and start padding your clothes. 

2. Dry Sponge

Use a kitchen sponge that you no longer want to use to wash dishes. Use the abrasive scrubbing hand against the fabric or cloth to clear the hair. If the hair is tough to get off, you can use a damp sponge.

3. Use the Dryer

Before you wash, pass it through the dryer on cool for a couple of minutes before you rinse. The drum movement will remove a lot of the hair and bring it into the filter. You can also use dryer sheets as its anti-static properties will help repel the hair and capture it in the filter of your dryer.

4. Rubber Gloves

To get pet hair off of clothes, use a rubber glove. Damp it a little and then run through your clothing. The friction they produce and the palm texture can cause the stray hair to stick to the gloves. The hair should start to ball up as long as you keep the motion downward, making it much easier to clump, remove, and throw away. Once done give your clothes a good shake. Take the gloves and watch the hair float away in warm water to cleanse.

5. Cloth Steamer

For delicate clothes, the best alternative is the steamer. The steam's heat and moisture remove stuck hair, making removal in the wash easier. Fill the steamer's tank with water, then in downward strokes drive the steamer gently over the cloth. Before starting up, do check the care instructions on the tags.

6. Vinegar

If you've been washing your clothes regularly, all you need to do a little extra. Simply add white vinegar to the rinse cycle to remove the hair naturally. In vinegar, the acetic acid softens the fabric, freeing up the pet hair that is stuck in the material. This method will also it will also keep lint off, too.
