Default Re: Re using hamster toys.

Since would is absorbent it would also soak up any vinegar or anything else you might use,as mentioned previously in the thread.So,unlike cleaning cages or wheels and such that are not absorbent and can be aired out to get rid of the vinegar completely,wood toys and similar wood items would still have vinegar in them.

Opinions will vary on whether it is safe or not to reuse toys from other hamsters,but you can't deny that wood soaks things up so at the very least this is a concern.

Definitely good to mention that people can do something and get off lucky,much like people have used things such as cotton fluff and had nothing happen while it is commonly known how dangerous it is and how so many people have already lost or nearly lost pets to it.
