Posted - 14/10/2009 : 16:09:14 I don't use special rep stuff, I just use either Milton (baby steralsing stuff) or an mild bleach solution (1/10 bleach/water) and rince well to make sure there is no odour or residue left behind. |

Posted - 14/10/2009 : 09:11:04 don;t use anything that you would use for human disinfecting. They are too strong and the odours will affect their respitory systems. 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 :) |
