    Cleaning Tubs

    I was curious as to how I should go about cleaning up a tub after my snake pees in it and I'm using paper towels as substrate? Do I need to fully clean the tub too?

    I remove the dirty paper towels and any thing left over... then spray the tub with chlorhexidine solution. wipe it up, then put new paper towels in. once a month I do a much more in-depth cleaning as well.

    ^ x2. But disinfecting the bottom isn't really necessary for spot cleaning, I usually just change out the substrate then disinfect all of my tubs monthly.
