6.6 Animal bedding (shives)

Hemp shives can be made virtually dust-free, reducing the risk of allergic reactions and respiratory problems in animals. The natural antibacterial properties of the hemp plant help prevent diseases and infections. The shives can also absorb a lot of moisture, and are fully biodegradable in soil and composting.[1]
