Default Willow sticks

I bought some willow sticks from wilko's (the same ones as P@H sell). They come in a bundle and I usually give them to my rabbit, but thought I could use the individual sticks for the hamsters? would this be okay? are they safe?

I give them individually to Noodles - I put them diagonally across the corners of her cage and she chews right through them!!! They don't last long! It's really cute though.

I am pretty sure they are fine because they don't have any pesticides etc on them and willow is fine (as far as I know). The fiddlestix bridges are the same wood aren't they? and I have seen a lot of people with them on their pictures.

Willow sticks are fine for all rodents it gives them a good natural object to gnaw on.
