I'm new to the group, I have an unrelated question but saw this re: the
Wetjet.

I never heard of the cleaner being harmful, but I'm personally allergic to
many "fragrances" and cannot stand the smell of it. So, what I did was, I
cut a hole in the bottom of the container, used a lot of Hot GLue to affix
the topmost part of a screwcap soda bottle that I'd cut and shaped a bit to
make a better fit, and now have an airtight bottle into which I can put
cleaners that don't bother me, such as oil soap. It has to be airtight,
otherwise the liquid will drip out and run all over the place.

I saw no indication, tho', that it bothered my green-cheeked conure in any
way...

So Jill, does this mean that the story circulating about Febreeze is not
true? My daughter won't even let my BUY a bottle of Febreeze because of
these rumors. It's good news if it isn't true. I love the scent of
Febreeze.
