We all know candles play a role in creating a cozy vibe to our home. It helps us to unwind or maybe create a relaxing environment after a stressful day at work. However, some candles can be harmful to our furry friends.
Toxin ingredients such as paraffin, lead and benzene can cause respiratory problem to not only us but our four-legs friends too. Fret not, choose organic wax candle made by beeswax or soy wax as an alternative as they work pretty much the same as the non-organic ones.
Before we take a look at some of local candles that are pet safe, here are some tips on how to burn candles in a pet household.
Tips To Burn Candles In A Pet Household
1. Burn In A Well-Ventilated Area
Ideally, place your candles in a room or an area that has a window. Placing your candles at an open space such as the living room can be helpful too. This allow the burning of the candles to spread across the room or an area and fresh air can circulate to balance out the air in the room.
2. Place Out Of Reach From The Animals
Like toddlers, animals can be hands-on and curious. Our furry friends tend to be peculiar of their surroundings. This include the flames of your candles. Some furry friends can be too curious that they might push around the candle which can cause the candle to topple or play with the flames.
3. Avoid these ingredients
Non-organic candles may contain ingredients that can extremely toxic to our fellow felines and canines. Instead, opt for organic vegan wax version of your candles such as beeswax, soy wax and vegetable wax.
These are the ingredients you should avoid in your candles:
- Lead
- Paraffin
- Benzene
- Toluene
- Acrolein
- Essential oils
- Artificial colors
- Artificial scents
Now that we know the tips on how to light candles around your pets, let’s get down to the list of Malaysian candle brands that are pet-safe.
