Virosan Question

Bleach is a tricky thing to use to clean, you can NEVER rinse too much when using bleach.
I use Virosan on dishes and spot-cleaning, and use bleach once every 3 months for a breakdown. Make sure to use it outside and rinse over and over if you do. Don't use it on anything like cork that could potentially carry traces of it. If you think you've rinsed enough....rinse it again. :)

I am in no way knocking Virosan but you may also consider ProExotics has an agenda when they tell people what they use , its sales ! I have been useing bleach in my collection for over 17 years and after several conversations with both Medical Doctors and Vets I have settled on bleach for my main disinfectant. I clean on a weekly basis and a complete cleaning at that .In my opinion spot cleaning is pointless you will never get all of the soiled area especially useing a natural type of substrate

i've been using bleach/water on all my nonporous stuff. but you guys finally convinced me and i just ordered some virosan. it sounds like it's gonna be worth it. 8)

oh and i actually ordered it here for cheaper than at proexotics http://lambriarvetsupply.com/sb/site...=4&item=005027 . smulkin posted that link a while back in a post about cleaners.

Robert, you're double-posting a lot. You might want to check and make sure you're not double-clicking on the submit button when you post.

Sorry for the doubles I think my mouse is messin up

It's ok Robert, I'm cleaning it up each time i catch it. You just might want to use a lighter touch or something.

Thanks guys for the input. The Virosan should be here in about 5 days or so. I got the spray bottle from ProExotics, and the gallon from a cheaper place. Depending upon which gets here first I will go with that for my latter needs (haha, they don't know they are in competition). Or I could try that link that was on here as well...good price.

Just out of curosity, (and I'm super new at this), but has anybody tried anything like One step No Rinse Cleaner? I believe the last brand name I saw was No brite, but I don't have that bag anymore, so I'm not sure). I would want to rinse simply becuase this would be for an animal, but as a meadmaker (mead is made from fermented honey, if you don't know) this is what I use to sanitize all of my mead making equipment when I make a batch. It's really vital that you get everything clean and sterile so you get don't an infected batch of med.

I just thought I'd mention this becuase some of my fellow meadmakers use bleach to sanitize things, but I prefer the 1 step myself.
