Electrolized water spray???

[gibson2503]

I just saw a spray meant for birds with only one ingredient listed. Electrolized oxidizing water. Is that even safe for birds?

It’s a disinfectant, I’d say no. Just use tap water

Spraying a disinfectant on a bird sounds very dangerous. Thanks for weighing in. Tap water has been the only thing I have used thus far.

Absolutely not! That is water that had sodium chloride in it. With an electrical current, it is converted into electrolyzed water!
Same process in a salt water swimming pool! It breaks salt into chlorine and hydrogen! Bleach!!

I'm going to slide a bit to the product has 'limited' use in specific application that would be recommended by an Avian Professional. For general use, no reason to use it.

Clean, safe water is a much better choice and a far less expensive source for spray applications. NOTE: In those areas that recommend bottled water for Human use, that same bottled water should be used for our Parrots.

HOCl - Hypochlorous acid IS ABSOLUTELY THE SAFEST AND BEST THING YOU CAN USE FOR YOUR PARROT! Our own bodies - our white cells produce HOCL to fight infection - it's organic and the BEST thing you can use for any pets! Google HOCL and Pets and you will see! Been using it for long time and it's amazing! I even use it for skin care and acne! Plus it kills COVID!

HOCl is NOT organic, no more so than the HCL produced naturally in your stomach. Theres no carbon associated with it

The HOCL that I use is organic.. Even the world health organization says it’s organic. Our own white blood cells produce HOCL in our bodies - that’s pretty organic.

World Health Organization was once considered a great source. Sadly, that time has past.

Being able to 'kill' Covid is questionable. Covid not being able to survive in it, would like be the correct statement.

Clean, old fashion water is a much better choice.

“organic” is not the same as naturally occurring, which I think is what you’re actually trying to say. Especially when you are talking about acids.

Bit of Chemistry 201: there is an entire branch of chemistry called Organic Chemistry. For an acid to be considered an organic acidic, there essentially must be a carbon atom associated with it.

as for the other use of the term, organic is traditionally used to describe crops grown without pesticides and synthetic fertilizers.

As hypochlourous acid is neither carbon associated nor a crop, unfortunately the term “organic” here is mistaken in several ways.

Any commercially available hypochlorous acid is decidedly synthetic in origin. Is it naturally occurring? Sure, you can call it a natural product. Organic? Absolutely not.
