To Debbie and Doug:
 
>DON'T USE HARTZ ANYTHING!!!  In fact, if you can buy it in a grocery store -
>DON'T!!  Use only the products carried by a veterinarian.
 
    I agree whole-heartedly with Debbie on this one.  Although grocery-store
products are usually watered-down versions of the real thing, or total
fakes, the potential for abuse is endless, and many people have used them to
ill effect.  Sprinkling them in the bottom of a cage would be one such use.
A concentratd dose of the stuff shouldn't be put anywhere, even in the
bottom of the cage.  That stuff will be in the air as soon as you put it in.
The bottom of a cage isn't a safe place to put anything....
