Could this work? It has no bleach and nonporus.

could it work for cleaning snake tanks?

honestly just use water with bleach i put a very very very small ammout of bleach in a spray bottle filled with water.
spray it on, wipe clean then make sure to air out the tub/tank before putting the snake/animial back in!:gj:

Kind of expensive. You can get Chlorhexidine for 9 dollars a gallon at Amazon.

i suppose it would work though.

little article mentioning both methods stated

The zep cleaner uses DIETHYLENE GLYCOL MONOBUTYL ETHER as an active chemical. It is reasonably safe product however it takes 2 or three days to completely break down unlike Chlorahexidine or quantryammonia compounds (F10). I will not say it is safe to use as I am actually unsure, the lethal dose (50%) for rats is 6550 mg/kg and bleach is 8910 mg/kg.
Personally based on the LD50 ratings I'd avoid it. Both chlorahexidine and F10 are good alternatives to it. I don't like using bleach either as it toxic and must be so carefully washed away (or everything left in the sun for hours) I am in the process of switching to F10 as it is more stable than chlorahexidine and does not need to be mixed just prior to use.

Diluted bleach solution inexpensive and effective. Used all over the world for killing germs. 1 capful of bleach to a gallon of water is good way to measure. Wipe everything down, rinse well, then air dry. 50-ppm solution has been used for sanitizing in Hospitals and Reataurants for years...

Hospitals use 1:5 dilution of 5% bleach to clean with 50ppm is very low restaurants don't need to rinse off anything less than 200 ppm. Most of the people I know of use 10% bleach solutions for reptiles but as stated it must be absolutely clean with no trace of smell remaining. I used to use it but it is a pain to deal with I prefer to spray and wait and dry.

I'm using regular Dish soap to clean my tubes... then rinse them well let them dry.. and after that wipe them with Chlorhexadine... work perfect for me...

Would antibacterial hand soap work? Just throwing it out there.

Like kitedemon, I use the chlorhexidine and am in the process of switching over to F10SC.
