Strolling the yard
Hello, It was recently brought to my attention how dangerous it is for my birds to be around air fresheners, cleaners, and stuff.
Normally I use Bath and body works candles, perfume, and body wash. But I was told to look at the ingredients on the candles to see if they are safe, and there were no ingredients listed on the candle itself, I checked online, and there was nothing, so I called and they refused to give me any info, except its made with vegetable oil and fragrance oils. So this worries me because what exactly are they hiding?
so I was thinking I would get rid of my candles, and replace them with what I was told was a safe comapany to purchase from, Mrs. Myers.
I was curious, do you guys think that getting a candle like this one would be safe?

but then again I have also heard that soy candles are very toxic, so I would like some input.
also i was wondering about this air freshener spray, do you think it would be safe?

the stuff is a bit expensive, but if I going to be using chemical around my birds, it needs to be safe. I have never had any issues, but I dont want to either.
OK, so my other questions are, I am planning on still using some of my regular chemicals, but the bathroom, is all the way down the hall, from the birds, which are in the living room, and I have a very long hallway.
I use lysol toilet cleaner, lysol disinfectant, and comet powder for the tub and shower. also I can always turn on the fan while cleaning the bathroom too.
and for the kitchen which is attached to the living room, its one whole open space. I was planning on using my mr.clean until its gone, then buy mrs Myers concentrated all purpose cleaner.
Laundry is in the basement of the building not attached to our apartment, so I'm not worried about the smells from that.
I think thats all my questions
