Pet Products Review -OdoBan® Ready-to-Use Pet Air & Fabric Refresher 24 Fl. Oz
As you know, the commitment of owning a pet, wether dog, cat, fish or ferret, comes the responsibility for keeping your house, home and care smelling fresh of animal odors. All pets generate smells, even the most pampered in Beverly Hill's. I was reminded of this as I stepped into my car the other week and realized that on the way, either I or my dog step in someone's business. I couldn't see anything to clean, but the odor was there. So I began my search.
You can imagine there are many pet odor remediation products. Many are quite expensive and focus on remediation of urine or feces. But for an all purpose air and fabric refresher, you're limited to very few. Those few are the same that you'll find in the grocery store for general home use, and tend to be very expensive. Lucky for me on my trip to Walmart, I noticed a varied selection of OdoBan Ready to Use products in the pet aisle. On sale for only $2.99 I had to pick up a bottle.
Pet Products Review -OdoBan® Ready-to-Use Pet Air & Fabric Refresher 24 Fl. Oz
Cleans and deodorizes pet stains. Eliminates unpleasant odors on washable surfaces such as upholstery, carpets, bedding, showers, walls and floors while leaving a fresh scent. Available in 24 oz. spray & 96 oz. refill. Too boot, the spray kills 99.99% of germs on the surface. Let me tell you. OdoBan works immediately. And the smell is a nice bouquet of eucalyptus and citrus. In my car I sprayed two times, and not excessively either and the odor was gone. Now I use it on Champ's dog bed and on my cat Stinky's favorite pillow.
I would say OdoBan is a must buy for pet owners. Look for OdoBan products in Walmart.
Pet Products Review - Bissell Pet Hair Eraser® Vacuum
You know every now and then I read the sponsored content from advertisers on sites. I came across this one set of articles on Dogtime.com for clean home tips: http://dogtime.com/clean-dog-clean-house-bissell.html A clean, dust, hair and dander free home is so importnant to me. There is nothing more disgusting than going into a home that has pets and there is dog hair on everything and it smells of animal.
With that, I tried out one of the recommended products, the Bissell Pet Hair Eraser® Vacuum. When I was in Target, I noticed that the price of the vacuum was only $149, that is $20 less than the manufacturers suggested retail price. So, I figured why not, I need a vacuum for my place in the country. Well I've been a tough critic on vaccuums before because they break down so easily, and so many of them Bissell included, I've always felt used flimsy materials.
To my surprise the Bissell Pet Hair Eraser® Vacuum was a delightful change. First, I was impressed with the suction, it was quite powerful. This is important if you have cats especially because they shed so much dander. You need good suction to pick this up. I also liked how it was bagless. This makes for easy cleaning, and I actually see the dirt that gets collected. And let me tell you, I'm impressed with how much dirt and hair me and my pets give off. Next, I thought the attachment was cool and really worked. Those little rubber hair lifters are great.

All in all a good vacuum and well designed for pets. My one con, Bissell, please use more substantial plastic in the construction.

Pet Products Review - 3M Scotch Pet Hair Rollers
Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it; My hair
That's the chorus from the musical Hair. Now, imagine that chorus screaming in your head, ‘cause your pets have left hair everywhere. It's inescapable! Truly maddening!
I have a Shetland sheepdog, yeah tons of hair, but my cat is even worse. Well, the people over at 3M must have hairy pets too because they developed a whole line of products that simply make my life easier. The Scotch Pet Rollers are amazing. They are not like those old lint rollers your mom used to use. These should be called high tech fabu-rollers. The sheets, which happen to have cute little dogs and cats printed on them, pick up hair in incredible amounts, and leave nothing behind. The sheets work so well that you actually use fewer sheets.
The handle is designed with ergonomics, so you can pick up even the heaviest pet hair from just about everywhere. And the grip is thick so can really hold on.
The Scotch Pet Rollers can be found just about everywhere. Look for them at your local CVS, Rite-Aid or grocery store.
