I have birds, and I do burn candles and incense, but in a different room with the door shut.


Erik,
You are quite right. Anyone who has birds should not have any teflon pans, when teflon heats to a certain degree (I dont' remember what it is right now) it gives off a gas that will immediatley kill any bird in the area. The pan does not have to be overheated for this to happen.
