Help with cleaning

[Juce23]

I was just wondering what was safe to clean my beardies enclosure with.. It has ceramic tile for substrate.. A mixture of water and bleach of some kind to kill any germs?

A handheld steam cleaner is effective and won't leave chemical residues. Quaternary Ammonium products are excellent too - they are effective against many germs (including coccidia) and are used by vets. I like F10 but there are a couple other brands (zoomed wipe out! Comes to mind). Some need to be rinsed others don't so check the label.

bleach is usually effective (except against coccidia) but requires lots of rinsing to remove fumes. Some people use vinegar for daily cleaning but While its good against some bacteria I don't think it's effective against parasites.

Thank you.. I wanted something that was safe for spot cleaning(poop & pee) that would be safe.. I will check out those products
