Do these collect dog hair (ie would I have to clean dog hair off the balls after each use)?

I agree with the other answers. These do not collect dog hair. I should know; I have three of them. Even if I am drying their beds, collars, toys, etc., I find no fur on the balls afterwards.

No. I have a dog and 3 cats and haven't had a problem, even when I wash the dog's blankets, which are covered in dog hair. The balls develop a pretty hard surface, so they don't really collect debris. I have been using them for nearly a year and haven't had to clean them.

Sorry, can't answer this question because I don't have pets at home. However, after many uses, the balls remain relatively clean and I don't have to remove even human hair from them.

They don't seem to. I have a puggle who sheds like a maniac, and I have not noticed dog hair on the dryer balls after I wash her blankets and dog bed covers.

They don't collect any hairs on them, human, cat, dog, etc. I been using them for a while new and they still look good as new.

This particular ball isn't what I would call "tacky" or sticky. I live with 3 dogs but I don't see any collection of hair on the ball. I also haven't noticed any static build-up that could attract dust and hair as well.

No. Whatever they're made from grabs the hair and removes it with ease and comes clean easily too. Great product and I highly recommend.

Hello. Thanks for your question. Some pet hair will stick to the dryer balls, but they will not remove it completely. Thanks!

I don't have pets, but I doubt it. If you are talking about removing pet fur from a pile carpet, you may need something along the lines of a Kirby or Dyson. When we got our Kirby years ago, it was picking up dog fur from the carpet & we don't have a dog. It was from the previous owner. Also remember, vacuums always work better when they are new. You may get something that will pick it up when it is new, but after a while not quite do it. Good luck.

How often do you have to clear out the hair? I have 5 dogs. I would be constantly empting it, right?

When I used regular dryer sheets they didn't remove cat hair so I haven't noticed that dryer balls do either! My cat's hair always ends up on the dryer filter even if I don't use anything in the dryer!

no they don't, but are long enough to tie a knot in them before disposal....I have no problem with them and I have a large basset hound.....

Yes it does they are an awesome vacuum. It picks up lng hair also. Our dogs short hair, but we have family have big dogs long hair and they used there vacuum and then used the Dyson and picked up we couldn't believe how much more it pulled out of the carpet.

I don't notice any hair or stuff sticking to them after washing. I don't pick that off, but do pick off larger stuff like twigs or leaves my dog brings in before putting in the wash pile. I don't use any fabric softener to make sure they stay super absorbent and work just like new!

yes, the ball comes out easily for cleaning. I advise using a soft cloth, maybe buy a can of air to keep the contacts clean.

Simple answer NO! We have two dogs that shed and three cats. No problems with hair pickup.

I send the cleaning cloth through the handle of my vacuum AFTER I have vacuumed the carpets. The cloths are damp, smell good and clean, and remove the hair which can get stuck in that long hose. Before using these, I had a pileup of dog hair gather and prevent the suction. These work. I have Shelties with long hair which can pile up in the hose. No problem now. Be sure to run the vacuum for five minutes afterwards in order to be sure the hose is dry.

After washing these a few times now once they have been used I have not noticed any major amount of lint in the lint trap from these towels. Since they are washed with other towels whatever small amount of lint is generated during drying is in the total amount that is cleaned out of the lint trap. So are they absolutely lint free after being washed - I would say that are really close to being so as I cannot find any amount in what is cleaned out of the lint trap once they are dried. I can say they work very well for drying when used as part of cleaning up from a meal.

No really. I do it because I have a dog and he sheds like crazy with a toddler and a newborn. If you don't have that problem, mop as you would with any other mop. Hope this helps.

These worked pretty well on my little maltese before she passed away. They are better for urine. I did have one accident where the poop kind of squeezed out and I had to clean her little butt up. The problem with the poop is it can cause a bit of a mess on their hair as it is confined in the diaper. But all in all the diapers helped with much less accidents on the floor or carpet that had to be clean up. Hope that helps. Claudia
