I own a gerbil, rat, guinea pigs, and other pets. I was searching the net this morning trying to find some consistent info on whether this is ok. My gut tells me it is safe. Most people on Yahoo Answers are saying it is. A few say to stick to the plain ones-not the colored. I think it is fine. Rodents need to chew. If you're worried I would keep an eye on him/her with it. In case your worried, none of my rodents have ever choked on wood. (not that I have seen) There is even gerbil agility and rat agility equipment that is online and some hurdles are made out of popsicle sticks! I believe the site is gerbilagility.com Google it for info.

Is popsicle sticks good insulators?

Popsicle sticks are not effective insulators because they are poor at reducing heat transfer. Insulators are materials that prevent the flow of heat, and popsicle sticks do not provide a significant barrier to heat transfer due to their low thermal resistance. Materials like foam or fiberglass are better insulators than popsicle sticks.


How are popsicle sticks strong?

As an individual stick, not very. Popsicle sticks are made of Yellow Poplar, a soft, not terribly strong wood. But with laminating by using glue, and basic structural principles, very strong objects can be built of popsicle sticks.
