Key specifications

• Material: natural wood shavings/sawdust
• Form: loose, lightweight shavings
• Primary function: absorption of moisture and litter substrate
• Suitable uses: bedding, litter, nesting material
• Disposal: biodegradable and compostable under appropriate conditions

How to use

Spread an even layer of wood shavings over the cage floor or nest box to provide a soft, absorbent bedding surface. For small animals, a depth of several centimetres is typically sufficient to absorb liquids and allow burrowing; adjust depth as needed based on species, cage size and individual animal behaviour. Replace soiled areas or fully change the bedding at regular intervals to maintain hygiene and reduce odours. When used in litter boxes, refresh frequently to preserve dryness and cleanliness.

Usage recommendations

Monitor animals for dust sensitivity during initial use; if respiratory irritation or excessive dust is observed, consider switching to a low-dust bedding alternative. Avoid using shavings from treated or scented wood and keep the product away from animals that may chew harmful woods. Always follow species-specific husbandry guidelines for bedding depth and replacement frequency.
