Question by answerseekerinohio: Dog Hair and Cat Hair ON MY COUCH?
My wife and I are tired of trying to remove cat hair and dog hair from our couch. The vacuum that we have is pretty good but is not enough to remove some of the hair (I think it is shaped like a hook on the end). So its almost impossible to remove some of it. Is there ANY easier way of removing the hair so I don’t pull what little I have left “out”?

put some baking soda on your furniture before vacuuming.. that will help loosen some of the hair… you can also take a rubber brush, such as a zoom groom to the furniture to help pick up the hair.
I put blankets on some of my furniture.. it makes it abit easier.. when the blankets get hairy, I toss them in the wash, and there’s less hair on the furniture

We have had the best luck with this rubber hand broom that came with a rubber floor broom. Its made for pet hair removal- I think we got it from Pet Edge
Duct tape rolled backwards works- so does a damp microfiber towel
do you have one of those roller sticky things? its that thing where you get hair off of your clothes, but anyway if you don’t you can go to your local wal-mart or a cheap store to buy one that is cheap i’m pretty sure,and just roll it across the couch,. something else, be sure to brush your dogs and cats hair and get their hair cut,
hope this helps.
I have a short haired jack russell who sheds SOOOO much… he is white on a brown couch, which is just a terrible mix. I vacuum regularly (with a Bissel vacuum with an attachment for upholstry that is amazing). Perhaps try a new vacuum?
However, vacuuming is alot to do daily. I just bought the Pledge Pet Hair thing… it’s like 5 bucks from Target and it works really well in between vacuumings just to pick up the hair. here is link…

There are two things to try.
Pledge pet hair remover
or
product called 3M FUR FIGHTER by scotch its like velcro sheets. which i have. I like it it works better than a vaccum and lint rollers. i have heard the pledge product works really well too by a friend who has 3 dogs. Im going to try that product next to see what i like better!
Use a rubber glove to rub over your sofa or clothing.
