    How do I clean my ball pythons water bowl?
    i just got a water bowl for my new ball python wanted to clean it. Can I just use soap and water like you normally would for dishes and then fill it up? and what type of soap?? And is it true I need to use the stuff to clean the water? Like repitisafe stuff? i heard how some people dont use anything but othrers say it bad for ur snake

    Just use hot water. No need to use soap unless very dirty...

    As far as reptisafe if you only have 1 snake, feel free to use, I did, BUT as collection grew iv just used tap water, and they are fine.

    Just regular old dishwashing soap works fine, make sure you get it rinsed good. I buy great value drinking water. You can get it in gallon jugs at Wally World. I have heard to avoid the distilled water, as it does filter out some of the necessary nutrients they need, and I also avoid regular tap water as it has all kinds of junk in it...:rofl:

    I clean all my water bowls with dish soap & water :) especially since all the water bowls I use are actual dishes.

    Mine go in the dishwasher, I have plenty of spares so a dirty bowl just gets swapped with a clean one.

    I use hydrogen peroxide for all my disinfectant needs. Water bowls, cages, hides and snakes who've crawled through their own mess.

    I use Natural Chemistry's Healthy Habitat. Works well for all my cleaning and disinfecting.
