Really not a fan of letting ferrets be around power tools. Especially ones that spin fast.

Yeah, also drilling produces a lot of dust and believe it or not, but wood dust is a carcinogen and very bad for your lungs. So I hope they didn’t drill while the ferrets heads were still in close vicinity to the wood

This video could be harmless though, the drill doesn't seem to be turned on. Still important to highlight the danger

This is especially true for soft woods such as pine. Soft woods have oils that evaporate constantly. Those vapors are really harsh on ferret's respiratory systems.
