Toxic woods/paints??

[Rebecca]

I can't seem to find a list or anything that lists the toxic woods and paints. I am going to build a cham cage, just not sure what paints and woods to use. If I cover the wood with that stuff they put on tables (can't remember the name mel something) would it matter at all what kind of wood I use?? Also what's the best type of screen?? Like there's normal screen the there's metel and covered metel.
