Household cleaners and wood floor

[scott199]

Hi all

just wondering if the below would be bad for birds ?
We currently use all natural cleaners But would this be safe for birds

anything in the ingredients that you think might be risky ?

I’m not talking letting the bird on it or around it directly but fume wise or even after once it’s dried.


Anything in our cleaners that would be an issue ?

List of ingredients
Ingredients Baking soda, biodegradable and non-toxic surfactant blend, potassium hydrate, non-toxic and biodegradable solvent, fragrance oil blend, preservative (less than 0.1%), colour, purified water.

@Mizzely any ideas about these ingredients? I’m only familiar with a few of them.

"fragrance oils" are usually not good for birds. That would be something I would skip.

should of added it’s almond fragrance, not sure if that matters or makes a difference

It’s no so much the actual scent it’s what is used to make the scent.

Exactly. Fragrance oils can coat the air sacs and lead to respiratory issues.

Thank you both, I have emailed the company to check regards birds,

we’re not to worried, it was just a question as we had to remove all chemical/strong smelling cleaners due to our dog who had epilepsy, I know it’s completely different, hence the question.

I have all wood floors in my house and won’t use any chemicals on them for the floors sake and it benefits my bird.
