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

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.
