    Airborne oil and Bearded Dragons?

    My mom just got this oil kit for different home remedies and she got this fogger for it. It is right next to my Nephews bearded dragon, do you think it could potentiality harm it? I figure maybe some things don't bother it but what happens if she puts the wrong oil in it that's bad for the dragon which I am sure could happen.

    I would definitely keep that away from the dragon and frankly, any animal. It could easily cause a respiratory infection or, depending on the oil used, death. I'm even wary of candles, incense, and any aerosols because if it does bother the animal, they are unable to escape it while in their enclosure.

    Agreed, this stuff needs to be in a different room. Cant imagine how this isngood for people let alone reptiles.
    Where are we going, and why am I in this handbasket?

    Never argue with idiots. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with their experience.
    Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.

    I would have to assume that oils being oils are non-water soluble. So if they get breathed in, they aren't going anywhere anytime soon, for people and other animals alike.
