Re: Wood Stove Safe to use Around Birds?

Hi Tammy, sorry wasnt on for a few days-

FIREPLACES - If you use a fireplace for heat in the winter
and have an airtight home, please be sure to place carbon
monoxide alarms in your home. I personally know of a case
where a cockatiel became ill and so did the owners of the
newer airtight home because of carbon monoxide poisoning.
They were fortunate to be alive.
