    Used rack need help disinfecting.

    So, I bought a used 10 tub rack, and I just needed some advice on disinfecting it, I dont want my snakes to get anything bad.

    It is Melamine

    It hasn't been in use for at least a month. When I got it I wiped it down with mildly soapy water and wiped it dry. Then I completely bleached the tubs, and rinsed them about 3 times.

    Will melamine hold any disease? Is my cleaning enough or should I not even use this rack :/

    Thank you

    If you can get ahold of F10, I recommend it. Also a good scrubbing with Chlorhexadine will not hurt if there is no F10.

    Other than that, just make sure it is structurally sound and you should be good.

    Som folks may also recommend you pre-treat it with PAM just in case, and if you do let it air out in a well ventilated area for a day or two before using it.
