I was wondering what everyone on here uses to clean/disinfect their beardie's tank and furniture. I obviously want to use something that will get my beardie's tank clean but also not adversely affect my beardie. Thanks!
Ok, so I did a little searching and found that a lot of people use steam cleaners to clean their dragon's tank. I just purchased a hand held steam cleaner on Amazon for $35. I'm still interested to hear what other people use as a cleaner, how they do it and how often they do a full tank cleaning. Of course I will use the steam cleaner for when I do a full tank cleaning. I am also interested in hearing how (and with what) you clean the daily poop from the tank. I have vinyl tile in the bottom of my tank as substrate, so I've been collecting the poop with a paper towel and then going back over the area with another paper towel that has been sprayed with a vinegar/water mixture. What are your thoughts?
I use a vinegar water mixture in a spray bottle. I spray all the furniture throughly then let it sit for a few minutes. After I rinse them really well. Then I spray the inside of the tank and wipe it out. The mixture is about 10 parts water to 1 part vinegar.
I do a wipe with vinegar water once a week over the substrate and surfaces of the furniture and then once a month I do a through clean
I started out by using a bleach and water solution, but I didn't really like it because it was difficult to get the fumes to go away, and I can't lift the tank by myself to bring it outside to really hose it down. So I ordered some of this:
