Pine?

[Chester1_andblueberry]

I know pine is bad for bunnies because of harmful fumes for both them and us but u was recenyly going through some stuff in my room and found a pack of litter that was given to me when I bought Chester home it is pine but this pine is unscented it smells like NOTHING and is dust free plus SUPER soft. So I was wondering can I use it in their litter boxes?

Does it say kiln fired or such? Because I've heard that is safe.

If you're talking about pine shavings, brokenmermaid is correct that if they're kiln dried you can use them as the drying technique removes the harmful phenols from the timber.

never use cedar as the phenols are still there--I've used kiln dried pine for more than a decade.

I have been using pine shavings for as long as I've had rabbits. It's fine.

I use pine shavings and its been fine but I always put a little straw over top of the shavings.
