"Zap Stains Most pets love to revisit old, invisible urine spots and freshen them up. To break that pattern, use a black light (available at home supply or pet stores) to find the existing accident sites, then clean thoroughly to eliminate the telltale stains and smells. Your best bet: Nature&amp;#039;s Miracle Stain &amp;amp;amp; Odor Remover ($4.49, 24 oz.), an enzyme cleanser that doesn&amp;#039;t just cover up odors with perfume but completely disperses the smell. In our tests, Nature&amp;#039;s Miracle performed better than six similar products.   Prevention tip: You can avoid stains if you train your puppy well. During housebreaking, always visit the same outside area and take him out often, every two hours if you can, until he does his business. Once he does, reward him with a treat. Get Rid of Hair When your pet gets down from the sofa, does he leave behind a pound of fur? Try the Evercare Large Surface Pet Hair Pic-Up (13.89), which cleans fast with its 10-inch roller and telescoping handle. For smaller jobs \u2011- like the black pants your cat decided to nap on -- try the Evercare Washable Lint Pic-Up ($3.59). Unlike other rollers, this one never needs a refill. Just rinse and dry.   Prevention tip: All furry pets shed, but you can minimize the fallout by brushing your dog or cat daily.  Eliminate Odors and Allergens  If your house smells even a little bit like the pound, fight back with Febreze Pet Odor Eliminator ($6.99, 800 ml). Spray it on couches or bedding -- it replaces your animal&amp;#039;s aroma with a light, pleasant scent. (Its special chemistry also prevents dander and other allergens from becoming airborne.) If a litter box is the problem, sprinkle it with a bit of Nature&amp;#039;s Miracle Litter Treatment ($7.99, 32 oz.). The powder gets rid of the ammonia smell and keeps the litter fresh longer so you won&amp;#039;t have to change it as often. The mild formula won&amp;#039;t bother your pet.   Prevention tip: The more frequently you bathe your pet, the fresher your home will be. (And your pet-allergic friends will sneeze less when they come to visit you.)
