I don't see nothing wrong with it. I don't think enough people try new things these days.They just go with what people say over the net.

People don't try using pine with their snakes because they already know it kills them(as well as other animals, but no one cares about "feeder rats/mice").

If the people who have been keeping snakes for half a century say that pine and cedar is bad for them and will cause bad things to happen(elevated liver/kidney values, neurologic symptoms, respiratory infections, and death), why would you tell a new keeper that it's okay? What if they went out and bought a bag of pine that hadn't been kiln-dried, or still had some oils in it from not being dried properly, and their snake ended up with a respiratory infection or neurologic impairment/seizures? They would come back here blaming the person who told them it was okay. What if that snake had been a morph that the person had worked long and hard to raise money for?

Just some things to think about.
