I've been doing some research on using pine or cedar shavings and from what I've learned, both are very harmful to pets. They are toxic... and can cause respiratory problems for all types of animals.ine is fine if it's dry, as in packaged kiln dried shavings. Have used it for over 6 years with no issues. It's aromatic cedar that can cause issues. ANY shavings that are super dusty can be a problem.

Purchase a window hanger for your box. Most window boxes are designed for mounting to a window with screws, so you'll have to shop around for a specialty window box that comes with hangers. To mount the window box, place the top of the hanger over the window sill, letting the large bottom part of the hook hand down.Place the flower box on the hook.Purchase vinyl siding hooks if you have vinyl siding. The hooks slip in the cracks of the siding and do not require drilling. To use the hooks, slip the top ends of the hangar securely into the cracks in the siding.ou'll need to check both the weight limit on the package and the weight of your flower box (filled). Consider installing boxes on balcony or stair railings instead of a window. Purchase window box hangers from a hardware store that attach to your railing securely.
