How to clean tiles...

[BadCon]

Its not uncommon for a disinfectant to not require rinsing, they simply deactivate once dry. Though it really depends on the disinfectant. As for Beaphar, I literally can't find any info about its composition, not even on their website. It does say to remove the animal when using, and return them once dry and ventilated. Honestly, from the list of pathogens it says it kills, and the various qualities they advertise about the product, I'd put good money that its a QUAT based disinfectant(Quaternary Ammonium Compound). These typically don't require rinsing and have mild fumes. I couldn't tell you for sure though, as I can't find much info.

Ingredients:

Polymeric biguanide hydrochloride (<1%), alkyldimethylbenzyl ammonium chloride (<1%), didecyl dimethyl ammonium chloride (<1%).

Yup, its a QUAT
Looks like good stuff...will certainly kill lots of pathogens. Just make sure its dry returning the animal. No need to rinse however, as Quats in low concentrations are usually non-toxic once dry. They are also pretty low odor compared to some disinfectants...not having used that product, I couldn't rate the fumes. Spray on, wipe dry, and wait until the smell is gone.

Cool.

I have been using to spot clean some areas, doesnt smell of anything. I'll just use water from now on though.
