With the winter months fast approaching in Sandy Springs, your dog will be spending less time outdoors and more time inside. With that comes more dirt and more dog hair. This can quickly accumulate on your furniture and floors. Your dog's winter coat can not only end up on your household surfaces, it can also reappear once your furnace kicks on when temperatures plummet. Here are a few ways that you can get the upper hand on pet cleaning and your dog's winter shedding.
Stop Dirt Before It Gets Inside
There is no question that your dog will have to be let outside several times a day for exercise and to go to the bathroom. While you can't completely avoid loose hair and dirt from entering your home, you can try to trap as much of it outside as possible. Set up a small pet cleaning station just outside your back door or in the entryway that your dog uses to come back inside. Have a brush and washcloth ready. A quick brushing and a good wipe down is the best way to keep extra hairs and dirt at bay. Giving your favorite pooch a non-toxic bath as often as possible is another way to really control an excessive winter coat issue.
Have Your Air Ducts Cleaned
Even when you do everything possible to keep your dog from shedding excessively, hair can get into the air. If it isn't trapped while dusting or vacuuming, it will likely end up within your furnaces air ducts. Having them cleaned professionally by a ZEROREZ® pro is a good way to eliminate them permanently. Clean air ducts will help eliminate stray hairs, dust mites and other debris that can get into the air.
Control Odors
Smells can creep up when pets come in after being outdoors. These odors can make your home seem messy and unkempt. ZEROREZ® uses an Zr Clean™ technology solution called ZeroStink to target odors that have settled deeply into your carpet and flooring. If odors still exist even after you've vacuumed, try using ZeroStink to bring a complete sense of cleanliness to your household space.
Spot Clean Frequently
Muddy paw prints, hairballs and bodily fluids are common with almost every dog owner. If your dog leaves his love behind on your carpet, couches and flooring, you'll want to spot clean as these issues arise. Primacide B-fluid from ZEROREZ® targets stains that occur when you don't have time to call in a pro. B-fluid safely removes stains and prevents them from reoccurring in the future.
While vacuuming, dusting, and proper grooming of your dog is the best way to stay on top of a powerful winter coat, calling the team at ZEROREZ® will help you regain the appearance of your home.
