Removing Airborne Cockatoo Dust

Cockatoos are gorgeous birds. But in captivity, the powdery dust they produce is a threat to their health and the health of the humans who love and care for them. This feather dust keeps their wings soft and they will continue to produce it all their lives.

In the wild this is less of a problem because it dissipates into the atmosphere or the bird flies away. Either way they are not forced to breathe air that has high levels of the dust for very long.

Living in homes, regardless of how beautiful, can mean a different story for your beautiful bird. Most homes are well insulated from the outdoor heat and cold and there is little chance for air to be exchanged. This means the dust from your Cockatoo is circulated again and again causing pollutant levels to continue to rise.

Filtering the air constantly is the only way to insure that the pollutants are removed and the air stays fresh and healthy. HEPA (short for high efficiency particle arresting) filters by definition are designed to remove particulates as small as .3 microns.

This type of filter will trap the dust from your Cockatoo as well as other particulates that are normally found in homes—household dust, dust mites, mold and mildew spores, and seasonal pollens.
