Is it possible to buy Chlorhexidine at a store or does it need to be ordered from a reptile supply site?
You could try a local feed store or vet supply store. I peronally could never find it in a store. You could ask your vet if they can get it for you too. I got my last bottle from the Tinley NARBC show.
Do a search in the husbandry forum, you can find a lot more infor there.
Hmm, I didn't use any soap because I wasn't sure which soaps would be safe. Anything that strips oil would be unsafe I would think??? Anyway. I took the tub outside and sprayed it out with the hose and wiped her down with a wet towel. She coiled up within an hour and ate like a monster two days later. I'm not saying my way is right, it's just what I did and it worked for me. She's had several meals since.

the three girls that have layed for me this year i just let them soak in warm water for about 30 minutes and washed out the tub. all three have bitten me as soon as i opened there tubs for food. and still eating great. i literally have to use a shield for my BIG girl. a soak and a tub wash is all it took for me
dang I must have a carefree snake I just rinsed the tub aout ( forgot the lid ) and wiped the snakes down with a wet rag. offer food the next morning. no problems. ( of course this is the one that slugged out on me the first time trying to breed ( planned ) lol Istill got my het pied and 3 others that might fall in as possible gravid if they don't eat soon.
