    rodent urine? inside cage?

    well, i noticed that the rodent urinates inside the cage.
    should i wash the spots right away? or wait until im supposed to clean the cage with clorex once a month?

    Re: rodent urine? inside cage?

    If you notice, spot clean, if you don't notice, not anything you can do.

    BP's live in rodent burrows so I'm sure they are used to rodent urine/feces , especially if the rodent does that when they squeeze them.

    Ideally though, if your snake doesnt spook while constricting (most are focused on that), then I would go ahead and clean it.

    Will it be harmful to the snake? Doubtful.


    Edit: Spot clean means dont whip out the chemicals . You can clean thoroughly when that time of the week comes around. Also, I tend to feed mine, and then 2-3 days later clean. Im not sure if that is preferred, but it also gives the snake less time in a possibly rodent smelly tub
