If you live with pets, cleaning isn't just about keeping things tidy — it's about keeping your furry family safe.
Many products labeled “natural” or “eco-friendly” may still contain ingredients that are harmful to pets.
So, how can you really tell if a cleaning product is safe for animals?
Here are 4 essential things to look for:
1. Look for "Non-Toxic" or "Pet-Safe" Labels
Choose products that are clearly labeled as non-toxic and safe for pets.
Avoid items containing harsh chemicals like ammonia, chlorine, or synthetic fragrances.
All CleanersHub.net products are carefully selected with pets in mind.
For example, our odor eliminator cleaner for pets is made from plant-based ingredients and safe to use around animals.
2. Know What Ingredients to Avoid
- Watch out for the following harmful ingredients:
- Ammonia – Irritating to pets’ eyes and lungs
- Chlorine bleach – Can cause vomiting or chemical burns
- Phenols – Common in disinfectants, toxic especially to cats
- Synthetic fragrances – Can trigger allergies or respiratory issues
Always read the full ingredient list, not just the marketing claims.
3. Use Pet-Specific Cleaners for Pet Zones
Areas like pet beds, toys, and litter box surroundings should be cleaned with products that leave no residue.
CleanersHub's enzyme-based formulas naturally break down odors and stains without leaving behind harsh chemicals — making them perfect for pet areas.
4. Trust Certifications — But Read the Labels Too
Look for certifications, but don’t rely on them blindly. Always read the product description to make sure it’s a fit for your needs.
Helpful certifications include:
- EPA Safer Choice – Verified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
- Leaping Bunny – Cruelty-free product certification
- USDA BioPreferred – Verified plant-based content
Final TIP: Let Cleaned Surfaces Dry Completely
Even the safest cleaner should be allowed to dry before your pet walks or lies on the cleaned area. When in doubt, wipe the area again with clean water.
