    Question Cleaning my snakes enclosure

    How should I go about cleaning my BP's enclosure? I know that you need to disinfect it every few months and replace all of the bedding but what should I use? And is there anything else about it that I should know? Thanks!

    You should spot clean every time you see poop. I think(I use paper) it's every 6 or so months you'll have to clean out everything. Use a non chemical cleaner. Reptile basics sells a good cleaning product.

    F10 is a favorite of mine. I wash bowls and hides with hot water and Dawn.

    i use paper in most my tubs/cages and I clean / disenfect / every week unless the cage is spotless .
    Hot water + dawn , then chlorahexidine wipe down / hot water rinse . Just how I've always done IT
