**Special Notice for Bird Owners ~ Please note that we do have scented items on our site. Please take VERY special care when using any scented product around your birds and/or parrots.  This also includes appliances that can give off fumes as well. Please visit our link section for more information on these products in homes with birds before you buy any scented product, cookware and some appliances such as self cleaning ovens etc.**

"Because birds have complex and sensitive respiratory systems, I'd advise against using scented candles in closed areas where birds are present. There have been some reports of birds dying after exposure to scented or 'room freshening' candles. Remember, household products are not routinely tested on birds, therefore manufacturers cannot certify that they are harmful or harmless to birds. If you err, please do so on the side of caution."
