Whether cat or dog - if you have a pet, animal hair is flying around everywhere.
We'll tell you how you can remove these with little effort.
Pet owners are mostly familiar with it: You sit on the sofa and as soon as you get up, you have countless animal hair hanging on your pants and top.
You can clearly see the hair sticking to black clothes * in particular.
Some pets even shed so much that the hair reaches down to their underwear as if by magic.
If you let your four-legged friend into bed with you, you will also find a lot of animal hair there.
So also on the carpet and everywhere else in the apartment.
In the long run, the constant vacuuming and wiping becomes a burden.
We'll tell you how you can remove animal hair quickly and easily.

Removing animal hair: the super trick with rubber gloves and packing tape
Tired of vacuuming every day to get rid of pet dander? Then we have a quick trick for you here. To remove hair from upholstered furniture or carpets, you'll need rubber gloves and a little water. Regardless of whether you choose disposable gloves or cleaning gloves, moisten them well with water. You can then run your
hand over the area with the animal hair
. These stick to the glove and can be disposed of quickly and easily. The same applies if you use a large packaging tape. This type of pet hair disposal is more complex, but also effective.
Walk the packing tape over the area
until you have all of your hair stuck to it.
After all, the tape then only has to be thrown in the trash.
Alternatively, clothes brushes and lint rollers are also a great help.

Washing machine for removing animal hair - this is how it works
Of course, this is mainly about the animal hair on clothing, but also on bed linen and couch covers. Often, hair still sticks to the fabrics despite a proper wash cycle. But here's a trick if you have a tumble dryer. Then you can put the clothes
in the dryer for a few minutes on the low setting before washing
. As a result, most of the animal hair will already collect in the lint filter. But don't worry if you don't own a clothes dryer (promotional link). There is always the possibility to throw some laundry balls into the washing machine. These also take on the animal hair.
