Instructions
Purchase a lint roller to remove unwanted pet hair and dander, a dandruff-like substance, from clothing. Lint rollers can be purchased at retailers such as Target and Wal-Mart, or ordered online from specialty manufacturers like 3M.
Wash affected clothing in high-temperature water with a regular amount of detergent. If clothing is particularly acrid, add 1 to 2 cups of white vinegar to the wash. Alternatively, add a 1-lb. box of baking soda. Both can be purchased at grocery stores. The vinegar and baking soda both neutralize the odor but are too weak to damage clothing material.
Dry clothing outside if possible or on your dryer's normal settings. Add scented dryer sheets to the load. If odor persists after first wash, repeat.
