SUGAR GLIDER ODOR - CONTROL PRODUCTS

The following is a comparison and review

of the top three Sugar Glider Odor-Control Products

available on the market as of

* 6 Important factors to consider when selecting the best Odor Control Products *

1. Veterinary Endorsements: Any odor-control product should be thoroughly tested - and endorsed - by several Veterinarians who specialize in Sugar Glider care and research.  Multiple endorsements are preferable.   2. Manufactured for Sugar Gliders ONLY: Despite what any website may claim, Sugar Gliders have very unique sensitivities, especially to sprays and airborne toxins.  Products designed for use with other animals - including cats, dogs, birds and reptiles are not recommended for Sugar Gliders.   3. Addresses BOTH Common Causes of Odors: Most odors coming from/near a Sugar Glider's cage are actually coming from the waste pan; where bits of food mix with the animal's urine and feces.  The second-most common cause of odors is the animal themselves; and this is primarily caused by feeding them an outdated diet. Effective odor-control products are going to address both these issues.   4. Food-Grade Ingredients: Because of a Sugar Glider's small size, even tiny amounts of artificial ingredients and preservatives (that are fine for larger pets) can be fatal to Sugar Gliders.  Therefore, it's especially important that any sprays or powders used to control odor are completely safe specifically for Sugar Gliders - and only contain food-grade ingredients with no artificial chemicals.     5. Non-Allergenic: Any effective odor-control product - especially sprays - must be non-allergenic and not cause an adverse reaction towards either the Gliders and their owners.   6. Glider-Safe™ Certification: Many products currently being marketed for Sugar Gliders are actually products designed for other pets which have been "re-labeled" for Sugar Gliders without objective testing. Products which have received Glider-Safe™ certification have undergone extensive testing by animal care professionals (including Veterinarians) - and have been specifically approved for use by Sugar Gliders.
