How to maintain hygiene in a house with pets

Pets at home

There are many families that enjoy the company of a pet, mainly cats or dogs. A house with pets tends to get dirty much faster, especially due to the amount of hair that these pets shed. If we have pets at home we should focus a little more on cleaning to prevent odors and dirt from accumulating.

There are some ideas that we can take into account when time to clean the spaces to enjoy a pleasant home for all. We are going to give you a few tips that will help you maintain a good atmosphere at home.

A place for the pet

Place for pets

La pet must have its space and not wandering around the house. This is really difficult if we have a cat, because they tend to walk on top of everything and sneak everywhere. But if we have a dog we can easily accustom him to having his zone. You must have a space to rest and sleep, which will be yours. We should not let him sleep on the beds or on the sofas and we will save hours of cleaning. On the other hand, if we do not want the dogs to walk in certain places, we can always leave those areas with the door closed, thus limiting the cleaning areas. It should be borne in mind that if we have a dog at home, it should go for a walk every day, to prevent it from feeling confined.

Use the vacuum cleaner

It is much better to use a vacuum cleaner than a broom when cleaning clean a house with pets because of the large amount of hair that there is. The broom can spread them and will not clean them in the most adequate way. However, with the vacuum cleaner we can clean all the corners and prevent dust from rising, something very important for allergy sufferers.

Vacuum robots

There are nowadays vacuum cleaners that clean and scrub while we are not at home. It is a great advance for people who have a pet, since while they take it for a walk they can perfectly clean the area. You just have to leave it operating in an area with sufficient battery and we will see the clean space without any effort.

Tricks to remove hair

One of the things that costs the most when cleaning a space with pets is having their hairs at bay. These hairs usually stay in clothing and textiles. To remove them there is nothing better than using a rubber glove like those used to clean the house. It gets a little damp and is used to drag hairs. This way we will have clean textiles such as carpets, sofa or curtains in a short time, since it will drag the hair easily.

Groom your pet

Pet bath

It is important that pets are well groomed so that bad odors do not accumulate at home. Cats are usually very clean and if they do not go outside they will not smell much, so they do not have to be bathed as often. The case of dogs is different, since they can leave much more smell. In this case we must bear in mind that they must be bathed every two months and take care of their fur.

Aromatize your home

Scented candles

Those of us who live with pets may not be able to notice their smell in our daily living. However, someone who comes home can notice that smell, so it is a good idea to aromatize the spaces so that everything smells better and that cat or dog smell is neutralized. Nowadays we have many ways to give our home a good smell, from the scented candles to mikados or humidifiers with aromas in essential oils.
