I prefer it to bird sand. There's less dust, and when the budgies flutter around, it doesn’t all get thrown out. They also like to peck at it. I just add a small dish of bird sand alongside. It’s a shame that you can’t get bird grit at Zooplus.

I use the XXL granules for my four ferrets because one of them has asthma and absolutely cannot tolerate any dust. And yes, it is completely dust-free – unlike all those other supposedly "dust-free" products. It's less effective against odours, but regular cleaning of the litter box is a must anyway. You do end up using more compared to other bedding, as the contents need to be completely replaced more often. Still, I wouldn't want to switch to anything else... :)

For our ratties, it's absolutely fine. Much better than the "normal" sawdust and also available in the right size to buy. The only downside:

I only use BH granules to sprinkle my birds now (minerals etc. are provided separately). I'm satisfied with the "Medium" bedding, and my "feathered friends" love it.

I use this bedding for my two guinea pigs. I find it very pleasant because it’s odourless, dust-free, and absorbs well. Both of them seem comfortable and happily race around, much to my dismay as it all ends up on the carpet. But it’s definitely recommendable!

I tried the beech wood shavings on recommendation, as I had previously experienced that regular sawdust produces a lot of dust, which settles everywhere in the children's room. This changed radically with the use of beech wood shavings. Unfortunately, the product is somewhat less absorbent and more expensive. So far, I have accepted this drawback for the sake of my child (less dust exposure).
