fumes

About 3-4 hours ago we had a cooking accident where plastic tongs were left on a burner and they started smoking and melted. They weren’t burning for long but the whole house smelled like it. Now it smells significantly less than earlier and can only be smelled when you first enter the house. I...

i want to make craft jewelry for my friends, and my attempts keep failing. i though clay/playdough would be a good idea, but i dont know if it can release fumes or something. so, is it safe for my birds?

Hi again everyone, this is a bit of a weird post but I wanted people's opinions on if this is safe or not (I plan on calling my vet in the morning and asking just to be safe). Long story short I have a bioactive set up for my reptile it's super big and it's located upstairs it sprung a leak and...

Hi, all. I came home from school today to the smell of paint throughout the entire corridor of my apartment building. I’m assuming that one of my neighbors decided to paint their apartment, as this is allowed in the lease. However, we are supposed to give warning to our neighbors upon doing so...

A good friend posted on facebook that she lost her dusky conure last night. She's pretty sure that the culprit was a new Pampered Chef pizza stone. Pizza stones are nonstick but they aren't coated in the way teflon pans are. I know I have several pizza stones (not that same brand) but...

Hi Everyone, I'm Prim, Honestly I'm a new budgie owner... bought 3 beautiful birds, 2 for my parents and 1 for me. (Got it for my parents as they are retired and were fighting everyday, but now good news, they fight way less as they are caring for the birds like babies) I brought home 1 to...

We are having our kitchen remodeled and have been living out of a temporary house because we were worried about the dust/fumes for our green cheek conure and the stress for our 5 furry friends. We are at the final stage, and they have sanded our floor and put a polyurethane finish on it. They...

Alright, I tried googling this, but I kept getting sites about cooking fumes. I live in the Midwest in America and it's starting to get cold, so mice are starting to come into the house. Obviously, this is bad and while Hiccup's cage is off the ground and all food stuff is kept in sealed...

I am well aware of the dangers and horrible consequences of toxic fumes from Teflon and similar non-stick surfaces including pans, appliances, etc. I don't use any of this in my house, but after all these years, it just dawned on me that my mom cooks in the stuff all the time at her place and...
