We hadn't heard of that - so thankyou



I think we'll be sending off for a trial of it.. I've just bought loads of carefresh because of needing to change my hamster over slowly (she belonged to someone else before me who was using wood shavings), so I'm hoping Bean won't be allergic too!! Hehe

Try putting the Carefresh in a large plastic underbed storage tub and shaking the dust tends to settle out or stick to the sides. I use Megazorb which you can get from equestrian supply stores often. They also sell other dust extracted, heat treated beddings for horses which are equally suitable for hamsters.

I use the ecopetbed for my rats too, it's great for them. I don't think it's much good for hams though because of the scale of it, some of the pieces are several inches long.



Bob Martins 100% Recycled Paper Cat Litter (available in Asda), or Morrisons own brand paper cat litter, are very like carefresh but more granule like, I find them less dusty. Carefresh seems to come in dusty and less dusty batches it seems. I keep my carefresh in a storage tub though and shake it about, seems to help keep the dust down.
