Bird Mister

A bird mister is a fantastic tool for bathing your feathered pets. Birds have natural instincts to bathe frequently. In fact, some species of birds bathe every day in the wild. They use a variety of methods to accomplish this, such as standing out in the rain, using dew on the leaves of plants or standing in the spray from waterfalls. Some birds will even bathe in ponds and rivers.

In fact, it's essential to good feather health for your bird to stay clean. Since your pet doesn't have access to the natural sources of water that a wild bird would have, it's up to you to bathe your bird several times a week. Some people do this in the kitchen sink, while others take their pets into the shower with them. These are all fine methods of bathing. However, using a bird mister is convenient and quick, and most birds love it.

A Bird Mister Is a Handy Tool

Using a bird mister is simple. You can bathe your pet with it in just a few easy steps. These steps are:

• Fill the mister with water that's at room temperature.
• Point the mister at the bird (the bird should be perched outside of his cage).
• Press the spray button, and release a fine mist of water onto your pet.
• Repeat this process several times until your bird is clean.

Your pet will instinctively know what to do to clean himself once the water lands on him. Many birds quickly learn that the presence of the mister means it's bath time, and they can get quite excited. Get discount bird misters and more from Bird-Basics.com.
