Then get some diatomatatious earth 

Whoa there Andy - My Late stepfather Passed away as a result of
Mesathelioma -Blue Asbestos Related . so I have been aware of
problem Dusts etc for a while - In Australia the only way they
mine Diatomaceous Earth{which are minute marine shells with
Sharp pointy edges} is a wet process where they spray water mist
all the time the miners are down there. It is considered as
dangerous Asbestos dust , NOW there is no way I would use this
stuff in lieu of a dedicated sand Box, Prefered to do the Fred
Flintstone myself and throw the cat out the door , But as these 
non native feral animals are now nearly considered as huntable,
I'm Ripped now i Have a Legit reason to take care of the problem

 No fense intended - But if you care to look up your local State 
MSDS sheets you wouldn't touch this stuff with a 1000 foot
Bargepole..
