How to remove pet hair from carpet (part 2)

Last week I showed how to remove pet hair from stairs in this post.

I thought about it, and thought about it and was NOT looking forward to going over my entire bedroom and family room on my hands and knees with a latex glove.

That's just way to labour-intensive - I want clean - but without crippling myself.

I surfed and found another photo of someone using a wiper to clean pet hair off of carpets.

I like it - but still reeks of "hands and knees work".

This isn't a sponsored post.  In fact, I'm not even sure if ENJO would endorse this method or not, but I evolved the wiper idea a bit to suit my needs…

I give you carpet before:

What you do see is Bernese Mountain Dog hair and what you don't see is orange tabby hair.

I thought "What if I took my ENJO window washer attachment (which has the squeegee on it) and add it to the extension pole?"


  
It totally works!
No bending or crawling, it's just like raking the lawn!

I'm not sure if I'm calling this by the correct name - the blade you want on the carpet is the one I'm showing on top here.  It's a wiper blade or squeegee or something?



Put it on the carpet and slide it towards you.



Another benefit of the extension pole is that you can but your wiper blade under the bed to get all the cat hair that's accumulated there as well!.



Look at this - it's like I've removed a small pomeranian from my carpet!




 Lacey likes to sleep in my closet, so here's the before:


The during:

And the afters:


Lynn, perhaps you could put in the comments whether doing this nullifies the ENJO warranty or not - just so I'm not promoting a faux-pas.

I'm still going to do it anyways - it works too well!








Anyone have a baby I can borrow?

Have a great one!

  1. I use my tennis shoe on my furniture the rubber sole wipes up the hair into a ball and I can pick it right up.
