Guinea pig poops have similar qualities to horse manure and are a great fertiliser. So even though you’re having to buy shavings on a regular basis, you can make the most of this potential compost and use it for your plants or vegetable plot! When NOT to use aspen bedding Overall, while pine shavings have many benefits for gardening, it is important to be aware of the potential risks associated with their use. By taking steps to mitigate these risks, such as using cedar shavings or a pest control product, you can enjoy the benefits of pine shavings without attracting pests to your garden.
