Having a pet is one of life’s great joys. But they don’t come without their share of mess and odor. Constant shedding, muddy paws, and unplanned bathroom breaks can mean our homes become a lot less spotless, and a lot more smelly.
No matter if you have a dog, cat, hamster or fish, here are seven cleaning tips that will help you keep your home feeling fresh and clean:
Vacuuming is one of the most important cleaning habits for pet owners. Vacuuming regularly can help keep your home looking and feeling its best, plus will help keep your pet fur-free.
Plug-in air fresheners can be a great solution for pet odors, as they fill the air with a pleasant scent whilst also eliminating the smell of pet odors. Be sure to look for fresheners that are designed specifically for pet owners.
Carpet cleaner is a must-have in every pet owners home. It helps lift and remove dirt, pet hair and other allergens that vacuum cleaners can't reach. Plus, with the right cleaner, you can protect your carpets from pet odors and keep them looking great.
When it comes to keeping your home spotless, where you place your pet's items can be just as important as how you clean them. Make sure to keep pet toys, feeding dishes, scratching posts and kitty litter boxes in an area that is easy to clean and away from high traffic areas.
One of the toughest pet messes to clean can be dirty paw prints left by your furry friend. To reduce the mess your pet can leave behind, keep a towel and a soapy solution handy for cleaning those paws before you let them back in the house.
Your pet may inadvertently spread harmful germs and bacteria in your home. To reduce the risk of any germs or bacteria lingering, it is important to regularly disinfect surfaces around your home. Make sure to keep wipes and disinfectant spray accessible and wipe down surfaces regularly.
The best way to keep your home looking and smelling clean is to keep up with a daily cleaning routine. Put aside a little time each day to vacuum, sweep, mop, and remove pet hair and mess in order to keep your home as spotless and hygienic as possible.
With these seven tips in mind, you can keep your home looking and smelling fresh, no matter how much pet hair and mess your furry friend leaves behind. Happy cleaning!
