Pine shavings are harmful to gerbils because the dust can cloud their lungs and give the respiratory infections. Aspen shavings, though, do not produce any dust and are perfect for bedding.
The cost of shavings varies greatly depending on the type of wood, the size of the shavings, the brand, the size of the package, and the dealer who is selling them. You typically will not find shaving for under $4.00 a bag.
