In recent years, the safety problems of confined space operation have attracted wide attention. In these operations, the use of small animals for detecting is a common practice. However, whether this practice is legal has been a hotly debated issue. At present, national laws and regulations are very clear about the safety requirements before operation in confined space, mainly requiring the detection of dangerous and harmful factors in confined space and taking corresponding safety measures. Before the examination and approval procedures are performed, the operation shall not be blindly implemented. Therefore, before entering the confined space, it should apply for permission in accordance with the relevant regulations, and use scientific gas detection methods and equipment for testing to ensure the safety of the operation.

Confined space refers to enclosed or partially enclosed spaces, such as basements, pipes, containers, etc. These spaces may contain risk factors such as hypoxia, toxic and harmful gases, flammable and explosive gases, so safety testing is required before operation. Whether the use of small animal testing before work in confined spaces is legal depends on specific laws and regulations. In some countries and regions, it is illegal to use small animals for testing. In other countries and regions, the use of small animals for testing is legal. Therefore, before working in confined space, it is important to understand local laws and regulations to ensure that the testing methods are legal and compliant.

There are also many questions about using small animals to detect safety before work in confined spaces. First, small animals cannot breathe and sense harmful substances in the environment like humans, so they cannot accurately judge whether the composition and concentration of gases in the space are suitable for human entry. Second, small animals may be injured or killed by straying into confined spaces, bringing unnecessary losses and psychological burdens to users.

Therefore, using small animals to test safety before working in a confined space is not legal, and there are many problems and risks. Scientific gas detection methods and equipment should be used for detection to ensure the safety of operations.
