It's been about 9 months since I was shipped a sample bag of Cell Sorb Plus. I haven't really had an opportunity to use it, except with mice I would go out and buy, but then feed off a few hours later...they never really had an opportunity to stink up the place.

But with my 7 new hatchlings...I needed some hoppers. I decided to go out and buy a few weeks worth..14 hopper mice. I had a feeling I was going to be walking into my room a few days later with that terrible smell of mice... bleh..i hate it...

I got the mice, I got their set up going...and I put about a half inch layer of cell-sorb-plus mixed in with some pine shavings.

24 Hours later...No smell
48 Hours later...No smell (14 mice?)
72 Hours later.......No smell....
I'm on day 4 right now, about to be day 5 and I can shove my nose right down to where the mice are peeing and pooping all over the place and All I smell is the food I put in their bowl.

The only place I can keep live rats or mice is in my room...and one if the biggest reasons I haven't started breeding my own is because of the smell. I think these next few days may change my mind.

This is just me, in my little experiment....really little. 14 mice is probably nothing compared to what some of you guys have.

So, I recommend this bedding...100%. I hope that some of you guys out there with a much larger mouse/rat collection will try some of this stuff out and report back, letting us all know how it works for you...I'd really like to know how this stuff holds up with a large colony.
