Question about paint fumes?

melindas Feb 02, 2007 12:09 PM

This weekend I will be painting my livingroom, currently that is were all my snakes are located, Is it better to relocate them temporarly to another room or can I leave them. My concern is I can not really open windows to air out becasue I am in pa and the temps will not allow it. Thank you in advance..

Hi
Your painting with a non oil based paint I would think? latax paints are not harmfull to animals,as long as its a latax based paint theres no worries.It is water based and drys fast..

Just stay away from oil based paints and you'll be fine.I hope that helps you

Yes it does thank you. We are usining latex, but I decided to move them anyway because it will be easier when were painting.
