Cypress update

Posted by Brian-SFCRC on April 10, 2003 at 12:32:54:

Attention everyone,

I stand corrected, I misread the sender as stating cedar instead of Cypress.
HOWEVER, Cypress is risky: 1) It is highly flammable. 2). It carries Plasmodium falciparium. 3). It can cause Pollinosis.

Also Coca shells should not be used due to Theobromine present.

Sorry for the misread but still look into different substrates for the sake of your animals. Even if the risk is slight, WHY take the chance?????

Sincerely,
Brian
