    Is this safe to clean your BP with? (natural hand santizer, chemical/alcohol free)





    I bought this for my kids. No chemicals, all natural. I was thinking, hey, maybe I can rub this on Sssspohie, it will make her smell good too :-)

    My mistake, it has small amounts of ethyl alcohol.

    First ingredient on the label is the alcohol. That means it is the main ingredient so there is more than trace amounts.

    I don't know about his reason, but I have cleaned many a ball python right after I pull the male from breeding her, the females will "evacuate" in the tub(if she has been eating) before she allows him to do his thing
    It's a nasty thing when one or both of them move about and spread the yuk all over.
    Or sometimes their poo is a bit runny and they spill their water bowl and it turns the whole tub and it's contents a nice chocolatey brown color

    A soak in water now and then is all you need.

    LOL I'm glad I have yet to run into a poo-covered BP. *Knocks on wood*
