Hand Soap to wash snakes

[Hapa_Haole]

Will hand soap harm my snakes if I use it to wash them after they pee/poop?

Thanks,
Dennis

just use warm water if you really must. Save the soap for your hands.

I wouldn't use any soap. Just use room temperature water to wash them off if they have soiled themselves.

I would just stick with warm water. Soap has to many chemicals that could cause an irritation.

I didn't know this was necessary. Do you need to wash them?

I wash the snakes with soap only after they lay eggs to remove the egg scent. I tend to just wipe them off if they are in filth.
