How to Deal with Pet Hair in Hard-to-Reach Areas

There's only one downside to pet ownership: pet hair. It gets everywhere — on the couch, the carpet, even your favorite blankets.

So, if you're feeling overwhelmed by pet hair, don't worry; you're in the right place. Thankfully, MetroVac’s cleaning solutions make the task simpler than ever.

How to Get Dog Hair Out of Carpet

Carpets are notorious for trapping pet hair, especially if the fibers are thick or deep. The challenge lies in removing the fur without damaging the carpet.

This is where MetroVac’s "Professional Evolution Full-Size Canister Vac" is worth its weight in gold. Designed with a powerful twin-fan motor, it delivers exceptional suction that gets deep into carpet fibers to lift even the most stubborn hair. 

Plus, its versatile range of attachments allows you to precisely target specific areas, making pet hair removal effortless.

Pro Tips for Best Results

•             Use the combo carpet/floor tool to lift pet hair effectively while smoothly transitioning between carpet and hard floors.

•             Keep the vacuum hose just above the carpet surface to maintain maximum suction power while ensuring gentle airflow that won’t damage fibers.

How to Get Dog Hair Off Couch

Couches are a magnet for dog and cat hair. Unfortunately, traditional vacuums struggle to pick up stubborn clumps that cling to the fabric. So, if you’ve been looking for ways to get cat hair off the couch or how to remove dog hair from the couch, the solution lies in MetroVac’s "ElectraSweep®."

Its lightweight design makes it ideal for quick upholstery cleaning. Unlike bulky vacuums, this handheld model is easy to maneuver around your furniture and convenient to store. It’s also equipped with a high-efficiency filter that traps fine dust and pet dander, so you’re not just removing visible hair but tackling the particles that trigger allergies.

Pro Tips for Best Results

•             Use the crevice tool to get into tight corners or edges where hair likes to hide.

•             Choose a brush attachment to gently lift hair from delicate fabrics without causing damage.

How to Get Dog Hair Out of Blankets

Here are three tried-and-tested steps to keeping blankets fresh and fur-free:

1.          Use a lint roller: Swipe it across the fabric to lift the bulk of the hair. 

2.          Wash and dry the blanket: Next, wash your blanket with half a cup of baking soda added to your regular detergent. This helps loosen stubborn pet hair from the fabric, making it easier to wash away. Once the wash cycle is complete, toss the blanket into the dryer with a dryer sheet on a low heat setting for 10-15 minutes. This helps to loosen any remaining hair, which will be collected in the lint trap.

3.          Vacuum the blanket: Finally, vacuum your blanket in different directions to make sure you get every bit of fluff. This is especially helpful for larger blankets or bedding. If you're looking for a powerful yet convenient option, MetroVac's "Cordless Hand Vac" is a great choice. Its strong suction lifts stubborn pet hair from blankets, and its compact, cordless design makes it easy to use.
