Allergy Pet Spray

Description

How can Allergy Pet Spray help those of us with allergies?

By shrinking the allergen load that your cat or dog sheds in your house. It’s non-toxic, helping you comfortably get closer to your pet, reducing your allergy symptoms by lowering shed dander.

How Our Cat & Dog Allergy Pet Sprays Benefit You and Your Pet:

• • Treatment for your allergic reaction to cats and dogs, to live more comfortably with your pet. Reduce your pet allergy symptoms by reducing the amount of dander shed from your pet.
  • Oil-free formulation leaves your cat or dog fur feeling naturally soft and healthy.
  • Our plant-based dog and cat allergy (non-aerosol) spray is free of toxins, zeolite, volatile organic compounds (VOC), parabens, phthalates etc.₃
  • Frees your pet from the stress of a bath. Easier to use on active/heavy pets. Better in cold weather, or when you’re away from your home bath facilities.
  • Better for the environment than disposable wipe products. Made from earth-friendly ingredients and packaged in recyclable materials.
  • Formulated and manufactured in the US.

Allergies to pets  are associated with exposure to proteins found in pet dander (shed skin cells), saliva, and urine. Unsurprisingly, the most common pet allergens in Australia are from cats and dogs.

Allergy Australia’s Cat and Dog Dander Remover is not for applying to your soft furnishings, that’s our Anti-Allergen Dust Mite Spray.

Pet Dander Remover Allergy Spray Instructions

Use a moist washcloth to apply the spray, working both with and against against the lay of the fur to dampen your pet’s coat. Use once per week.

Pet Allergy Education & Best Practices

What is dander?

Tiny, even microscopic, skin flecks shed by animals. Cats and dogs are the most common pets, and their dander causes the most common pet allergies, with allergic sensitivity to cats more common and often causing stronger symptoms. Proteins found in cat and dog dander (tiny, even microscopic, flecks of skin shed by cats and dogs), saliva, fur and urine can trigger allergic reactions.

Personally, cat dander is my strongest allergy, my nose and eyes stream like crazy within minutes of exposure. I worked this out prior to any testing, because our family friend’s (with cats) houses always brought out hay fever and asthmatic symptoms.

What are best practices if a household member is allergic to the family pet?

• Bare floorboards/polished floors are by far  best, carpet accumulates 100 times the amount of Fel d I (cat allergen protein) per day.₁
• While immersive baths will remove the most allergen, use Allergy Australia dog or cat dander spray when or where it is difficult to get your pet in to a bath to reduce airborne allergens.
• Increase ventilation/air exchange and reduce the amount of furnishings in the room, where possible. Low ventilation and more furnishings increase the level of airborne allergens, ven after your pet has left the room.
• Mop, vacuum (with HEPA filter, studies show a 25% reduction of airborne allergen₂) and clean furniture. Wipe smooth surfaces down.
