Is the havea wood safe for hermit crabs? I am unable to find anything online about this. Toxicity?

Not sure about hermit crabs usage, but it seems to be fine for my Lovebird who sleeps in it every night.

It's made of a coconut - the same type of "wood" you use for your cocohut for the hermits. Yes it's safe and they love it. Try to hang it high so they can climb and turn to the side so not much light gets in it and they'll sleep in it during the day.

yes it is safe for hermit crabs. I've done extensive research and contacted the company that makes them. Very few havea trees are unsafe as they are sprayed with something. But these ones were not sprayed and there is no other toxicity in them.

Even though this product was designed for birds we have sold this to customers for hermit crab use. It's perfectly safe.

Follow up: It is unlikely to have shellfish components. The HA is sourced from chicken cartilage. None of the listed inert ingredients are shellfish components. However, nothing specifically states that no shellfish components are included.

I do not have any links for you but my conclusion is that it IS safe to use. I used it in my raised veg beds after I noticed grubs. Grubs gone. Worms did not seem to be affected at all. Good luck. PS. I don't think this product has any shelf life after opening. I used the rest on my lawn. Wear a mask! You do not want to breath in the spores.

The material is our ecoFLEX® Composite made from recycled polymers and reclaimed wood fibers. It is 100% non-toxic and will not harm any animals that come in contact with it or happen to chew on it or even ingest any particles.We have an independent outside lab report to support this claim if you'd like it. If so please email us at cs at clickhere2shop dot com. Thank you, and let us know if you have further questions.

It is non-toxic according to the labeling, so sure, 100% ok as far as what is listed. Also, if you want a non-toxic filler that is cheaper, also use or mix this with different areas using a hot glue gun and a cheap pack of home depot or loews hot glue gun sticks, making sure they are the right diameter to fit in the gun.

I didn't know that silicone products were toxic. I have been using silicone spatulas since they have come out on the market because the other types fell apart during cooking. Since the silicone ones held up, I order the ice trays. My husband and I have suffered no ill effects.

It's non-toxic as it's a kid's toy first and foremost (mine sits on a shelf with other shark memorabilia) so yes, but scrub it first with some mild soap and rinse it off good so as to not bring any bacteria into the tank. And as someone mentioned it will have to be weighted as it will be buoyant.

no problem, it says, product is only toxic to fish (don't spray in tank); I successfully got rid of moths, I recommend it; I used it indoors because that's were my moth infested carpets were; and I am still alive, did not get sick, did not use a mask - just use it with common sense (don't spray our hair...)

It does not have the California warning about carcinogenic components, and believe me I looked closely. It is made of rubber in the USA. That is why I bought it, since I intend to be watering garden vegetables and herbs with it. I think Natalie Jane was referring to the comment about bacteria possibly growing in it. Just run the water for a few seconds to completely flush out the hose and you will have no problem. I looked for a long time to find a hose like this, so I believe that it is safe. Now the birds won't avoid my birdbath anymore...

I would think so, being that they are crabs, but this sand is really dusty, so I would personally use something else. Coconut fiber substrate is worth looking at. http://www.drsfostersmith.com/pic/article.cfm?aid=2386 has some good tips for "crabitats". Have fun!

http://www.aspca.org/Pet-care/ask-the-expert/ask-the-expert-poison-control/spider-plants.aspxAccording the the ASPCA it is not considered toxic. Yahoo answers is not a great resource to trust given ANYONE can post to it. T. Phillips, I just did a google search for the same question you asked, and that link from the ASPCA was the first hit.Cheers

It's safe and non-toxic and it cleans great. But I would check with your local health department first. The manufacturer could probably email you a MSDS (material safety data sheet) to submit to your agency.

Supposedly, according to their website, they farm it in such a way that arsenic is not a problem. I would suggest contacting Lundberg for any further information just to be on the safe side.

I don't see why not. We've got three large hermit crabs and their bowls a climbing branch and a hollowed out log like shelter (probably 5-7" long) in ours. Hope that helps!

Alan, thanks so much for sharing this. I have some 'silicone spatulas' with wood handles that were ofcourse never 'adheared' to the head, I have to take care not to get the 'connection' contaminated with what ever it is I am using it for. If you run across a solid sil spat, pls let me know. I'll do the same.

I have 2 closed terrariums made with this assortment of live moss. It hasn't happened to me. Must have been shipped with dormant larvae that hatched. The bugs shouldn't hurt anything, I don't think.
