Febreze dangerous to pets

There have been multiple instances of dogs and birds who have died or become very ill after exposed to Febreze, a deodorizer/air freshener. Febreze contains zinc chloride, which is very dangerous for animals.

Please do not use febreze anywhere near you pets> if you have used it near your pets or on their bedding clean the bedding area thoroughly to remove the febreze and move the animals away from the area.

Please pass this information onto other pet owners caretakers, before more animals are injured or killed, and find a safer method of odor control.

Febreze this product is marketed as something that removes odors without covering that removes odors without covering them up. However there is a strong smell to it, but worse that that febreze contains szinc chloride, many birds have already been killed after this product was used in any proximity to them whatsoever, and some dogs have also died. Other dogs have become ill without dying. This product is marketed as a safe around animals ad people have sprayed their dogs bedding to remove the doggy smell only to discover that later on that their dog became deathly ill from it. There is one dog who lost most of her hair after being accidentally sprayed with some febreze though this particular incident also had a second factor involved (diet change) the febreze bottle, as of December 1998 has a picture on the back of a dog, which leads some people to believe it is safe to use.
