    Do you have pet in your home? If you have a pet, you need to clean your pet regularly, and brushing your pet’s coat is very important for you and your pet. So it’s also very necessary to clean your brushes, combs and other cleaning tools constantly. Here are some ways to help you clean the tools easily.

    1. Soaking Your Cleaning Tools

    *Remove all fur from the brush or comb. Before preparing your cleaning solution, pick out visible hairs and dirt from the brush’s pad and bristles. You can do this with your thumb and forefinger, or with an old toothbrush or comb

    *Prepare a solution of water and vinegar or shampoo. Depending on your preference, you can add vinegar or pet shampoo to a large mixing bowl of warm water. A vinegar-based solution should contain equal parts vinegar and water. If you're using shampoo, you only need to add two or three generous squirts to a bowl full of water.

    *Dip the brush bristles or comb teeth into the solution. Once you’ve removed excess hair and dirt, you should submerge your grooming instruments in the cleaning solution for between five and thirty minutes. This step is important even if you’re planning to disinfect with bleach or an antibacterial spray.

    *Rinse with clean water. After soaking, your brush or comb will still have some residual dirt or hairs clinging to the bristles or pad. You can remove this remaining buildup by rinsing it in clean water and then lightly shaking it to whisk off any excess moisture.

    *Spray a disinfectant onto the clean brush. While vinegar and shampoos have some antibacterial properties, you should apply a separate, stronger disinfectant if you’re worried about germs, viruses, or other bacteria.

    *Place the brush on a towel to dry. Rather than using your newly cleaned and disinfected brushes immediately, set them out to dry thoroughly before subsequent use. Place them with the bristle side facing downward so that water doesn’t drain into the handle or brush head.

    2. Storing and Maintaining Your Tools

    *Inspect brushes and combs for signs of wear. Even the most diligently cleaned brush or comb will eventually show signs of wear and tear.

    *Store tools in a dry, warm space. You probably know that you should keep brushes and combs away from chewing, playing animals, but keeping them out of reach from your pets isn’t the only criterion for safe storage.

    *Repeat brush cleanings weekly. Since your brush gathers new dirt, hair, and germs every time you brush your pet, you should wash your brushes frequently.
