BellaOnline Forums Home and Garden Birds is it ok?

lately... i sprayed pesticide on the area of my cage... it was a water-based pesticide... will it still have a bad effect on my lovies? they were insde the box when i sprayed...

well if the pesticide was scented it would be a bit of a problem untill the scent vaporizes.

I never use any chemicals around my birds not even to clean the room. I only use white vinegar, dish soap and water.

I would wash the area of the cage it touched thoroughly.

I wish you had asked BEFORE you sprayed it - but since you've done it already, please make sure that the cage is washed and washed again. You don't want any possible leftover residue of the pesticide left.

the cage was placed very near to the ceiling... and i sprayed directly to the floor... will it still effect my lovies?

If it was going to affect them, it probably would have by now - but please remove the cage from the room before spraying any pesticide near the birds in the future.

ok... hope there will be no bad effect to them...
