One thing still kind of confuses me...When cleaning out your glass tank/viv what are you supposed to clean it with? Is washing up liquid ok? ive heard people say to use weak disinfectant but am not sure what products would count. What product does everyone else use?

I use either a bleach solution or milton, i know my local rep shop used milton to deep clean his Iggy room too. Whatever you use just make sure you rince it off with water and you'll be fine.

As I only have a smal plactic tank i clean mine with washing up liqid, then rinse it in boiling water, before drying, Bam seems fine with it.
Chimp276 Posted - 20/07/2009 : 13:28:17

yeah spose that would be fine lol! Just as long as there arent no chemical left in there then that would b fine!
hiper2009 Posted - 20/07/2009 : 13:09:19
Is it ok to use washing up liquid like a small ammount and then mixed with loads of warm water to wash the viv out and then wipe down with hot water and dry with kitchen towel is that ok to do as im getting my snake tomorrow and i want to clean his viv before he goes in it.
lee2308 Posted - 20/07/2009 : 12:51:57
i would play it safe and just use stuff designed for reps.Beaphar beaclean or bephar deepclean or some thing simular,snake can be very sensitive.
