Product Overview
Pet hair has a way of surviving the wash, clinging to blankets, hoodies and pet bedding long after the cycle ends. These reusable pet hair laundry balls go into the washing machine with your load and help gather loose hair, lint and fuzz as the clothes tumble. They are small, reusable and simple to use: drop one or more in with your laundry, run the wash, then pull them out and clear off what they have caught. They are a handy everyday helper rather than a complete fix for heavy shedding - see Important Information.

Important Information
-
Set realistic expectations. The balls help collect loose hair during the wash. For items covered in heavy shedding, shake them out or use a lint roller or brush first, then wash with the balls.
-
Clean after every wash. Remove the trapped hair and lint from the ball after each cycle so it keeps working well.
-
Clean your machine's filter too. Some loose hair will still end up in the drum and filter, so check and clear them regularly.
-
Washing machine use. The supplier describes these for use in the washing machine. No dryer use is specified.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use them?
Add one or more balls to the drum with your laundry and run your usual wash. Take them out at the end and clear off the hair they have collected.
Will they remove all the pet hair from my clothes?
They help gather loose hair and fuzz, but heavily coated items do best with a quick shake or lint roller before washing. Using two or three balls in a larger load also helps.
How many should I use per load?
One works for a small load. For bigger loads, bedding or heavy shedders, the 3-pack gives you more coverage.
Can I put them in the dryer?
The supplier only describes them for the washing machine, so we suggest keeping them out of the dryer.
Will they damage my clothes?
They are round and designed to avoid tangling with clothes during the wash. As with any laundry accessory, keep delicate items in a wash bag.
How do I clean them?
Pull the collected hair and lint off by hand after each wash, then let the ball dry before storing.
