Zeolite and pets | Zeolife.gr Natural zeolite provides the most natural and economical solution for maintaining a healthy and clean environment for our pets, whilst also helping to improve their health. By replacing the bedding we use for our pets (sand, wood shavings or even newspaper) we improve air quality and reduce odours from our pets’ urine and faeces by binding gaseous ammonia, which is responsible for serious damage to the respiratory system of both animals and humans. Furthermore, sprinkling fine zeolite powder on the floor and across the entire surface of the bed significantly reduces humidity in the animal’s bed. ... Read more
