Mango branch as climbing prop

I found a nice self-supporting branch that would fit perfectly in Mars' tank. It comes from a mango tree. I sandpapered the surface down to smoothness and want to cool it in the freezer to kill off parasites. Otherwise Mango should be a good wood to use for enclosure decorations right?
 
I have never seen mango on any lists for poisonous plants. I like field collected branches my self, and don't always know what the original tree was. If it is dried out enough to sort-of look like drift wood (and there is no cedar smell) than it should probably be fine.

Others may disagree.
 
I've been seeing a lot of furniture made out of mango wood lately- it's very pretty. I think it would be safe.
