A novel method for the supply of bedding and nesting material with inbuilt environmental enrichment for rodents (1999)

Willan, P. C.

Abstract

Non-toxic cellulose tea bag material containing sawdust provided valuable stimulation and encouraged the animals to tear open and dispense the sawdust and utilize the pack as nesting material. The sealed packs were extremely labor saving in storage and dispensing into the cages in both open and enclosed caging systems.
