    Not really sure what you are asking... I clean mine by removing hides, water bowls, decorations, etc. and vacuuming the substrate out. Then I get a rag and wipe it out with a half bleach half water mix. Wipe it dry and let it air out for a little bit, then put everything back. During the summer I just take everything outside and scrub it with dish soap. I hope that helps.
