Title: Apple Tree branches
Post by: coloblondy on July 27, 2006, 09:55:43 PM

I have seen in several places where Chins love apple branches. My neighbor has an apple tree and we can get as much from it that we want. It is never sprayed with pesticides so pretty clean in that respect. Do I need to do anything else to make these branches safer? I know that alot of people will wash and bake homemade treats...

Thanks in advance

My chins LOVE apple branches and being in a state with many apple prchards(NY) I can get mine from neighbors and friends.  I read somewhere to scrub them and then bake them in the oven at 250 degrees for an hour, so that's what I do.  Not only does it kill any bugs that may be hiding on the branches it also makes the house smell great!
