I have been using pine for over a year with no problems. As you may already know you should not use cedar.

How does shredded paper work? Like I know how you shred it I mean for cleaning and smell?

i personally found that their "waste" stuck to the ground when using paper. I also lost some mice (they hid in the paper when i cleaned and were thrown into the garbage, by accident:) ). I just use pine but others have used paper with great succes.
