It is possible to damage wooden furniture by burning incense on it due to heat, ash, and residue.If you wish to enjoy the benefits of an incense burner while protecting your wood furniture, you can take certain precautions. The following guidelines should be considered:
Consider using an incense burner that is heat-resistant: Choose an incense burner manufactured from metal or ceramic that will withstand high temperatures. You should avoid using glass or plastic burners that may crack or scorch easily, posing a threat to your wood furniture.
A heat-resistant mat or tray can be placed beneath the incense burner to provide an extra layer of protection. In this way, any falling ash or residue will be caught, preventing direct contact between your furniture and the ash.
Maintain stability and keep away from flammable objects: Be sure that the incense burner is placed on a flat surface to prevent tipping and damage. Be sure to keep it away from flammable objects such as curtains, papers, or other furniture that may catch fire.
Incense sticks and cones should be trimmed to an appropriate length to avoid overhang and potential contact with your furniture. Make sure that the burning end remains completely contained within the incense burner.
Immediately clean up any accumulated ash or residue around the burner after each use. Exposure to sunlight for an extended period can be abrasive and damage your furniture's finish.
Maintain vigilance during use: Always keep an eye on the incense burner while it is in use. Do not leave it unattended and ensure that the incense is completely extinguished before leaving the area.
Additionally, you should take into account the well-being of your animals, particularly cats, when using an incense burner. Smoke produced by the burning of incense can be harmful to the respiratory system of your cat. Cats may develop coughing or allergic reactions due to the smoke acting as an irritant. Your cat may also develop asthma, respiratory problems, sinus inflammation, and even lung cancer if he is exposed to increased levels of smoke in the home.
A cat may become toxic if they inhale the smoke and oils from incense, especially if they do so in enclosed spaces or in excess. Therefore, incense should not be used around cats. It is advisable to seek veterinary assistance if your cat develops respiratory problems after inhaling incense smoke.
Following these guidelines and considering the well-being of your pets will minimize the risk of damage to your wood furniture and create a safe environment for both you and your cat.
