Applewood sticks are one of the safest and most beneficial natural chew options for hamsters. They help support both physical health and natural behaviours:
š¹ Supports Dental Health
Hamstersā teeth never stop growing. Applewood provides a firm, safe texture that encourages natural gnawing, helping to keep their teeth trim, healthy, and properly aligned.
šæ 100% Natural & Safe
Applewood from untreated, pet-safe trees is non-toxic and free from harmful chemicals. Itās a trusted natural chew that hamsters can gnaw without risk.
š§ Encourages Natural Behaviour
Chewing, stripping bark, and nibbling are instinctive behaviours for hamsters. Applewood offers mental stimulation, reduces boredom, and helps prevent stress-related habits like bar-chewing.
šŖ Great for Enrichment
Applewood sticks add variety to your hamsterās environment. They can be buried, hidden for foraging, or added to enrichment setups to keep your hamster active and engaged.
š Appealing Taste & Texture
Hamsters enjoy the mild, sweet scent and flavour of applewood, making it a chew theyāre naturally drawn toāunlike harder, less tasty woods.

We recommend freezing all sprays and foraging items for 48 hours, allowing them to defrost for 24 hours, and then freezing again for a further 48 hours.
This process helps ensure the items are completely pest-free and safe for your small animals. Freezing in two cycles effectively eliminates any potential insect eggs, larvae, or microscopic pests that may naturally occur in dried plant materials. This extra step provides added reassurance and supports the
standards of hygiene and safety
