Things You Should Never Put in the Washing Machine

Pet hair-covered clothing

While we all love cuddling with our beloved pups and favorite lap kittens, the hair they frequently leave behind is less than adorable. While your first instinct may be to immediately chuck the hair-covered pants in the washer, it’s worth taking a moment to remove the hair first with a lint roller or brush.

William Bittner, told that if you chuck it straight in the washer, the hair gets wet, clumps, and can stick to the sides of the washing machine spreading the hair to your next load of laundry. Plus, all that hair can run down your drain, clogging pipes. Another option for removing pet hair from clothing is to stick it in the dryer first where the steady motion, heat, dryer sheet, and lint trap can remove and capture the hair.
