If so what are they and how can they be prevented? #Post#: 243-------------------------------------------------- Re: can i use my hamsters items for mice By: Cynical_Mouse Date: February 26, 2017, 8:00 pm --------------------------------------------------------- If your hamster passed on due to illness, I wouldn't recommend reusing the wooden toys simply due to the fact that wood is porous and really cannot be cleaned. Plastic toys can be rinsed and scrubbed with hot water and mild, non-scented, mouse safe soaps. Reusing wooden toys is a huge debate in the small pet community with some feeling that after a few months of the toys being unused, most of the dangers have passed, whilst others feel it's better safe than sorry and just throw them away. I personally reuse wooden items and I simply let them sit out for a few months before giving them to the new animal. Best wishes *****************************************************
