QuestionHello Dana I haven't used a vacuum in any of the areas all of our sanctuary bunnies are because I'm so afraid it's going to give them tinnitus or make them deaf. I vacuum rooms where they aren't as I can close the door.
I've only ever swept & mopped their rooms. I'd really like to properly vacuum the floor vents etc but don't want to take a chance. Many of them are older & all haven't experienced a vacuum. I must seem crazy to you but it's a real concern for me.
Thank you.
AnswerDear Paula,
Is there a way to remove the bunnies from one area while you vacuum, and then put them back? You could then do a small area at a time, not getting the loud vacuum too close to any bunny.
Alternatively, you might want to invest in a quieter vacuum. Some are much louder than others. Shop vacs are really bad, but others not so much.
We are fortunate to have installed a central vacuum, which eliminates almost all the noise. If you can manage that, it is ideal. But it is quite a significant initial investment.
Hope this helps.
Dana
