I'm wanting to switch to wood pellets after reading here how long they last and I bought a bag of Tractor Supply brand equine bedding ((broken link removed)). But I'm still kind of confused about how to tell if/when they're safe to use because I've seen some conflicting posts about it being widely used and reliably safe for guinea pigs, or also having different possible wood sources and not guaranteed safe.
I have a sensitive nose and I'm super inexperienced with types of woods and their smells, so how strong of a smell should I reasonably be looking out for? The pellets are currently airing out in a plastic bin just in case and I can smell them from 8-10 feet away (hardly smell a thing if I'm just holding some in my hand), but it's a pretty dull scent -- weirdly almost more like a play-doh smell, to be honest. I know sense of smell is so subjective, but any tips would be great!
