Reducing African Grey Dust

African Grey parrots are some of the most gorgeous birds in the world.  They are not only good-looking, but intelligent, and many are able to speak with understanding. 

 But if you have one of these birds, I know I'm preaching to the choir.

Like all warm-blooded creatures they shed dander, but because they are powder-down birds, they also shed a white powder that can be daunting to control.

So between the normal household particles, the dander, and the additional wing dust that they create, the number of particles increases exponentially because of their presence. 
Unless this dust is continually removed, the air will become clogged with particles making it impossible to get a clean breath of air.
Because their air passages are so small, continually breathing these particles will cause their airways to become constricted.  This is very often the start of disease and infection that is often impossible to reverse.
These additional particles can also cause problems for healthy humans and can exacerbate respiratory conditions such as asthma and allergies.
The only way to keep air quality high and particulate levels low is to continually filter the air with a high efficiency particle arresting filter. 
This type of filter is not only efficient but safe.  By definition it must be able to remove 99,997 out of every 10,000 airborne particles that are .3 microns or greater in size.
The only by-product this type of filtration produces is clean air.  There are no worries about ionized particles or ozone.
PurerAir.com offers the Bird Dust Air Purifier that has a 4-stage filtration process to trap particles ranging from the visible to invisible.
If you have an African Grey, you owe it to you and your bird to clear the air.  See the Bird Dust Air Purifier from PurerAir.com now at http://purerair.com/bird_dust_air_purifier.html

African Grey Air Purifier


African Greys are some of the most beautiful and intelligent parrots to have as pets. 

Many can speak fluently, and with proper care they can live over 50 years. 

Part of helping them enjoy a long and healthy life is about providing fresh air that is free of particles and odors.

Their respiratory systems are very sensitive to odors, and their air passages are easily clogged because they are so small.  Unfortunately, once symptoms occur that signal illness, it is often too late to reverse the condition.

The fact that these birds are powder down birds only adds to the challenge that you as an owner face in keeping the air clear.  All birds, in fact all warm-blooded animals, produce dander or dead skin flakes. 

But in addition to dander, the white powder that Greys produce can be daunting to keep under control.  But it is essential to minimize the powder and dander if you and your bird are to remain healthy.

An air cleaner that can stand up to this kind of particulate nightmare needs lots of different sized filters that can trap airborne particulates. 
The recipe for success in terms of filters should go like this--pre-filters for big and medium particles, a HEPA or high efficiency particle arresting filter for micron-size particles like dander, and a filter for odors, gases, and airborne chemicals that can also trap particles.

This purifier extraordinaire should also rise above controversy and produce zero ozone and no ionized particles.  Fresh air should be the only by-product.

PurerAir.com offers such an air purifier for African Greys.  See it now at http://purerair.com/bird_dust_air_purifier.html

African Grey Parrot Dust


If you own an African Grey Parrot, you’ve got one of the smartest birds on earth. They are beautiful, and the white wing dust that goes everywhere is part of the reason their wings stay healthy and look so gorgeous.

Greys are referred to as powder down birds because of this dust that helps keep their wings healthy; but it can sure make a mess around your house.

This powder is a fact of life for you for as long as you have your bird, and there is no way to completely eliminate it.

You can drastically reduce the amount you find on furniture and floors by continually filtering the air with a cleaner that is specifically designed to eliminate large amounts of particulates.

Literally clearing the air is not just a good idea because it will make your place look better, it really is for the birds! Breathing air that is thick with particles makes it more likely that their air passages will become clogged. And air passages that are constricted often make conditions right for disease and infection gain a foothold.

PurerAir.com offers an air cleaner that is used by professional aviaries because of its ability to clear the air. It's designed with a 4-stage filtration process that traps particles from the ones you can like dust and feathers, to ones that you can’t see like dander, bacteria and viruses.
