How can I keep litter dust out of the laundry room?

Our answer

Switch to low-dust litter, place a washable textured mat outside the box and clean surrounding surfaces with a damp cloth.

Why this approach makes sense

Check the animal’s actual habit and offer a suitable alternative gradually. Size, access, texture and placement can matter as much as the product.

Before you try it

Watch for signs of stress or discomfort and adjust the setup to the individual animal.
