OK I've googled the crap outta this and found nothing so Im submitting it to the board & hopefully can figure this out.


I am ATTEMPTING to make my own play gym for Oliver. I've figured out the base and can order the circle top BUT the manzanita I want is just a WEE bit out of my price range. I have a wonderful park near my home with a ton of branches and wood of every shape & size I could possibly use.

CAN I SAFELY BRING IT HOME & USE IT?? I read somewhere, don't remember where, that I can put the wood in the oven at 400 degrees & kill off any eggs, bacteria, etc. but I don't want to risk it if it could even potentially be 15% unsafe for Olly.


Any thoughts???

Check out the resource library and the safe wood list. AS long as it is those type should be ok. Bake it for a bit, wash it, then air dry outside if possible.
