DIRECTIONS AND WARNINGS FOR USER: The ingestion of sufficient levels of zinc by certain birds (psittacines) and small animals (carnivorous mammals) may, under certain circumstances, lead to a condition known as zinc toxicosis, the background history of which is detailed in an Information Bulletin which you should obtain from your supplier and which you must read carefully before using any galvanized wire mesh. The Information Bulletin should be retained for future reference. The following precautionary measures, discussed in more detail in the Information Bulletin,are summarized below. 1. When building or purchasing new cages, thoroughly wash and brush mesh to remove all loose      zinc particles. Ensure that no particles are left on the floor of the completed installation. 2. Apart from small particles, zinc can also be ingested by feed becoming contaminated by      leaching the zinc coating from the galvanized cages. The primary conditions which promote      these possibilities are high acidity of feed high ambient temperatures and extended contact      between feed and the cage. 3. At the first sign of any illness of stock introduced into new cages, the stock should be removed     and a veterinarian should be given the Information Bulletin. 4. In areas which you deem critical, we recommend that a totally non-toxic material such as     stainless steel be used.Many thousands of tons of zinc coated wire mesh have been used for     overthree decades without significant problems but users can minimize any risks involved by     following these precautions.   For prices, & quotes call us at (818) 843-MATE (6283) or send us a FAX at (818) 843-7409   Site Index: All Purpose Cages | Breeder Accessories | Bulk Seed / Supplements | California Breeders Framed Doors | Hardware Accessories | Rabbit Cages / Rodent Condos | Roll Wire Terms and Conditions | Walk-In Aviaries | Weather Protection Home | Email
