Our pets are family, aren’t they? You’d never want to risk their health just to make your home smell lush. If you’ve fallen for the gorgeous scents of Smelty Sizzlers (and honestly, who hasn’t?) you might be wondering, are simmering granules safe for pets? Let me explain.
🐾 What exactly are sizzlers?
Sizzlers are natural salt granules blended with high-quality synthetic fragrance oils – (we do not use harmful essential oils in any of our products) and colour. No wax, no smoke and no animal-derived ingredients. When gently heated in a burner they release amazing scents without the mess of melted wax. Just fragrance, pure and simple.
🐕 So, are sizzlers safe for pets?
Short answer? Yes, when used properly and with care. Sizzlers release the same type of scent molecules as candles or wax melts but without open flames or liquid wax. There’s nothing to suggest that using them harms pets unless your furry pal has a specific sensitivity. Birds mind are a bit different. They’ve got delicate lungs so it’s best to keep all strong scents away from them.
✅ Keep it pet-safe with a few smart moves
- Keep burners out of reach (cats can be really nosy even when they’re up a height!)
- Don’t leave burners on when you’re out
- Ventilate the room
- Choose gentle, more subtle scents if your pet seems fussy
If your pet sneezes or seems off, stop using that scent. Pets like humans can have allergies, be sure to read the allergen information on our packs. You know your fur baby best.
🆚 Sizzlers vs other home scents?
Honestly, sizzlers have the edge. No wax spills like melts if a pet accidentally knocks them over. No flame risks like candles when using an electric burner. No harsh chemicals like aerosol sprays. Smells lush and very practical!
📝 Final word
Used with care, Smelty Sizzlers are a fantastic way to keep your home smelling grand without risking your pet’s wellbeing. So go on, pop the kettle on, warm up your favourite scent and give your pet an extra cuddle. They’ll love you for it.
