by Steve Z. Azeus Wood Crusher
Best Material for Animal Bedding
1. Cedar and Pine
The bedding material that potentially can cause some health issues is soft wood, primarily cedar and pine. Cedar is popular because its aromatic qualities help cover odors in a pet's environment, it has some insect repellent qualities, and can even kill certain moths, the anecdotal data are largely supportive of pine shavings as animal bedding. Pine is the number one selling bedding for pets and livestock.
Recycled Newspaper
Pelleted or shredded newspaper is more suitable for small pets like cats,etc.
3. Corn Cob
Another non-toxic bedding, enjoys some popularity with caged bird owners. While with corn cob for bedding, you should clean regularly as then it gets wet, it will produce neurotoxin.
Wood Bedding Pellets Advantages compared with Shavings or Straw
Wood pellets for animal bedding can be made by a wood pellet machine from sawdust or straw with feedstock size 3-5mm. Through pelletizing process, it can greatly improve material density and strengthen absorbent ability. Besides, as the pelletizing temperature can be 80℃, so the tars, oils, hydro-carbons, and other potential allergen are all removed, thus good for animal health.
