Many plants that you have in the house can be dangerous or even deadly to your bird. These include paints, solvents, cleaners, disinfectants, detergents, pesticides, herbicides, pills, medications, and even items like hair sprays, hair dyes, perm solutions, deodorants and deodorizers, drain cleaner, rubbing alcohol, nail polish remover, perfumes, shaving creams, soaps and suntan lotions.
