Learn the best ways to clean hardwood floors and hard-surface floors with pets in the mix

Clean homes make it easier for you to relax, but pets, as much as we love them, can create an added challenge. For homeowners with pets in the family, having clean floors can sometimes seem extra tough — pet hair, along with dirt tracked in from outside, add an extra level of cleaning to maintain beautiful floors.  All it takes is a little extra prep and care to show your floors and your pets the love they deserve.

Pets need to have clean, safe floors because they tend to spend a lot of their time at ground level. From simply lying on the floor, eating off the floor, and exploring/sniffing floors, our pets have a totally different experience of floors than we do. Here are some simple floor cleaning tips for pet owners to keep everyone healthy and safe.

1. Use a pet-safe floor cleaner – also, the best floor cleaner for pet urine

It’s a common question: “What is the best floor cleaner for pet urine?” Bona Multi-Surface Floor Cleaner for Dogs and Bona Multi-Surface Floor Cleaner for Cats both use Odor Guard Technology™, which neutralizes urine and other organic odors upon contact and prevents re-marking the same spot by eliminating odors. Cleaning pet messes as well as the usual dirt and grime from your floors is easy with Bona Pet System Floor Cleaners, not to mention the safer choice for people and pets. Our waterbased, biodegradable formulas are free of harmful chemicals, so you and your pets can breathe easy.

2. Keep pets properly groomed

2. Keep pets properly groomed

Fur is a big concern for pet owners, but frequent brushing will keep pets cleaner, and happier and will help prevent a lot of fur from getting onto your floors and furniture. To prevent/minimize scratches on floors and damage to your finish, be sure to keep pet nails neat and trimmed.

While it won’t prevent the problem entirely, the Bona Pet System Microfiber Sweeping Pad comes with your Pet System Microfiber Mop. Just attach it to the base of your mop and observe how quickly you’ll be able to gather and attract pet hair, dander, and yes, that pesky cat litter, too. While fur on floors is nearly unavoidable for most pet owners, the Pet System Sweeping Pad is really the way to go for cleaning. Its microfiber “fingers” use electrostatic energy to attract microparticles and lock them away. Use your sweeping pad before vacuuming to prevent dander and allergens from being blown around by the vacuum. And though it’s technically a mop and not a broom, it really is the best broom for dog hair and cat hair – as well as for cat litter.

4. Prevent messes in pet zones

Keep areas with heavy pet traffic protected for easy clean up and maintenance. Use pads or mats around food areas and make sure food and water bowls are stable to minimize spills or crumbs. Pay extra attention when housebreaking pets and attend to pet messes ASAP to avoid floor damage or lingering odors.

5. Protect floors with rugs and mats

5. Protect floors with rugs and mats

Protect entryways and other areas where pets are most likely to stay with extra floor protection. Entry mats can be a great way to trap dirt and debris from pet paws before when they enter/exit your home and rugs can provide a comfortable spot for pets while protecting the beauty of your floors. If possible, invest in multiple rugs or mats to swap out more frequently to keep floors looking fresh.
