bedding in the uk

[Curleyone]

I was just wondering what bedding people use the only bedding i can find in pet shops is Carefresh in the UK,,And i have read some bad reports about this. All wood shavings i have seen dont tell you what they are.i am buying anew aqurium 2morror and would love to put loads of bedding in to dig in is Carefresh ok for this or does any body have any suggestions please.

wood shavings in the UK should be fine
Pine in the UK is not produced int he same as way as it is the US so you should be OK.
Of course rarely gerbils can develop allergies and you may have to change.
That aside carefresh is fine but personally I find it too dusty and it upset my families asthma so I had to stop using it.
Megazorb is very good to (google it too find out more). It is expensive though and has to be bought by the sackful so this may be a problem.
This was posted 4 times btw so I deleted 3, I assume you made a mistake.
