BTS ESSENTIAL OILS, CANDLES, ETC

Postby King Julien » Fri Apr 23, 2021 4:25 am

I am finding it hard to find info on this so I'm taking it to the forum,
Are essential oil diffusers, candles, etc bad for (Eastern) BTS? I assume they would be bad for their little lungs but I'm just checking incase they are ok to use. Oils I have are lavender, eucalyptus, teatree. Candles I know parafin wax is bad for humans and animals, but I have soy wax also. I know smoke distresses them so I don't light the candles. But are essential oils used in an aroma diffuser okay in the same room as my bts? And if they are okay, are there certain oils I should stay away from?

I would not use anything of the sort around animals. They do not have a choice. If it bothers them it's not like they can leave the area.

That's what I was thinking, just making sure. Thank you!
