I know there are many topics that are about this issue and i've read them, but there is a problem. Here in Greece there are not many pet shops that sell reptiles, therefore i can't easily find a reptile cleaner either. What should i do? Buy one online (i think it's gonna cost a lot to deliver it in Greece) or is there an easier solution?

I read that baby safe disinfectant is not enough for snakes.

Best to use a baby disinfectant at least, but it's easy enough to find reptile disinfectants that aren't expensive. I have a very good one, its yellow in a spray bottle, can't remember the name but it has a green lizard on the front. Very long lasting and you don't need much, and barly smells of anything :)

Hmm, or, warm soapy water with a good rinse will do.

Use washing up liquid, if you can get it out there, or, put all the decor in the dishwasher and wipe the viv down with a cloth that has been dunked in warm soapy water, then rinse the viv down.

Baby safe disinfectant is pretty much the same thing and obv if its safe for bubbas its fine for snakes, so find some of this stuff will be fine. :)
