yeah but up to a certain amount-only so much oil can be absorbed in one wood shaving Use Kitty litter..

To safely clean up a spill of motor oil on wood surfaces, first sprinkle an absorbent material like cat litter or baking soda on the spill to soak up the oil. Let it sit for a few hours, then sweep or vacuum it up. Next, use a mixture of dish soap and warm water to scrub the remaining oil stain. Rinse with clean water and dry the area thoroughly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasives that can damage the wood.
Inside of your valve cover you will find a magnet. It's main purpose is to keep metal shavings from getting into your engine oil. If the shavings were to make it into your oil it can mess it up
we can help clean the oil spill by volunteering to help clean the animals who have oil on them.
Firstly you pick up the waste matter and old shavings/bedding, wash out the stall and disinfect then provide new shavings and bedding for your animal. (Ensure you wash your hands regardless if you had gloves on or not).

The cost of wood shavings will vary according to where you live, what brand you prefer, and how much you buy at one time. Only pine should be used for horse shavings, and these are typically the lowest in price. You can buy them by the 'bag' or 'bale' for anywhere from $2.00 (in bulk buy form) or up to $12.00 per bag/ bale at the feed store. You can buy them by the cubic yard from mills and this will likely be the most cost effective method, but you must have storage available to house the bulk shavings as they will not be bagged or baled up.
$14,000,000,000 was spent to clean up the oil
Before you put your equipment up you should clean it. The wood should be coated with linseed oil to protect it during the offseason. Keeping your pads clean is the most important thing.

No, not recommended. You may see pet stores using cedar or pine shavings as bedding for ferrets. Cedar shavings harbor bacteria and can cause allergies and respiratory problems in ferrets, also pine and other woods produce dust. Wood shavings are completely unnecessary for ferrets, you can use clean towels or old T-shirt for sleeping. Cedar shavings, white and yellow pines, release volatile hydrocarbons which can affect animals. Plicatic acid, a volatile hydrocarbon, results in asthma in humans and rabbits. Other hydrocarbons result in changes in the liver, which may impair its ability to detoxify certain drugs, including various anesthetic agents. Scientists over the years have alluded to possible carcinogenicity in cedar shavings. Absolutely not. Wood shavings are usually made of pine, which is a very dusty wood. If small animals like ferrets, rabbits, etc. come into excessive contact with very dusty materials (such as wood shavings and cat-grade clay litter) this can get into their lungs and dry them up. And that can end up very badly if not caught in time. Short answer: no wood shavings.
