How do you clean up after attending to your snakes? Do you use soap and water, a bleach solution, hand sanitizer or something else?
Let me know!

Are you referring to cleaning snake tubs or your own hands?

I don't make an issue of washing up just cause I handled Alexander. If eat yes, but I have so many types of pets, I don't spaz about a germ or two.....I don't tend to get sick very often either. You can't sanitize your body to oblivion. Your body is made up of millions of bacteria. When you mess with that...That is when you get into trouble.
Be careful of hand sanitizers. Your body absorbs all those chemicals. NOT GOOD. Just soap and water is the best.

Soap and water.
*If I am out at a show and don't have quick access to soap and water, then I use the hand sanitizers (although I know they are practically worthless in the long run).

Soap and water--if I can't get to the sink immediately, then hand sanitizer.

If I'm just handling them and checking on them, I dont usually wash afterwards.
If I'm cleaning up poo and pee, I will wash with a foaming antibacterial hand soap and water.
I dont like using hand sanitizer.
