F10scxd for full cage cleanings and nastier messes, F10sc for general disinfecting. I also disinfect the entire cage with it at the end of full cleanings. Great stuff and goes a looooooong way.

Ive read each description on the sites and cant really find the differance in the 3-4 F10's except for one that says Concentrate. Anyone heard about why one differes from the other????
F10SC
F10CXD
F10DX
F10 Veterinary Disinfectant.
F10SC concentrate.

F10SC is a disinfectant that is left to dry and forms a barrier so it is safe for the snake.

F10SCXD is a cleaner that has soap in it and must be rinsed off thoroughly. You cant let it dry on the surface.

Never heard of F10DX. F10 Veterinary is the same stuff as F10SC. F10 SC concentrate is stuff you mix with a % of water to create your own strengths.

I personally use the F10SC concentrate and just mix up about a 250:1 in a spray bottle and use it for cage cleanings, spot cleanings, water bowl cleanings etc. You can even use F10SC in a nebulizer to kill the start of an RI or at least I have been told by a lot of people as well as having heard this from a few vets too.

Thank you Sauzo.. It looks like Reptile Basics has the best deal on F10SC. After 30min of searching ive found it sold anywhere from 200ML for $29-$49 and RB has it for $24.99.
Not sure what the Concentrate price is, I found it earlier now lost the website I was on. Hahha

I clicked on this wondering if anybody recommended F10.

200ml is the concentrate. That's the size I buy. I get it from Bean Farm as I live fairly close to them so it only takes 1 day to ship. Ok I just looked on RBI. They also sell premix which is the ready to go stuff. Don't buy that. Waste of cash. Buy the 100ml, 200ml or 1L white bottles of concentrate. Then go to any hardware store and buy something like a 32oz spray bottle.

If you zoom in on the white concentrate bottles, you will se caps. The cap on the right is just to pour an umeasured amount out. The left cap covers a little built in measuring part that has lines for 5ml and 10ml. You just remove that cap and squeeze the bottle and the little tube on the left side will push the stuff into that measuring part. 5ml for a 32oz spray bottle will give you about the 250:1 ratio which is good to kill most stuff.

Also remember to let it sit for about 10-15 mins before wiping it off so it has time to kill germs. I personally just spray my whole cages down with it and then go do something else for about 15 mins. Then I come back and wipe down the floor of the cages and any stuff on the walls and ceiling that haven't dried. It works awesome on urate stains too. Just spray the spot and let it sit for 15 mins and then wipe it off. You don't have to use a putty knife to lift up the dried urate.

Ok I looked on Bean earlier and just thought they were expensive but its a higher price because its concentrate, so thats a plus. I'll grab the 200ML & I have new spray bottles too... I always mix my degreasers ect....👍🏼
