Id not bother with windex but look to just water and dry towel or vinegar and dry towel. Bleach is fine but it is best before returning the snake to leave it for an hour or so in direct unfiltered sunlight. This breaks down the chlorine. Bleach is toxic for people and animals. Just for future reference. The space of time you are talking it doesn't matter about using bleach if you choose. I personally choose to use a safer product than bleach. I have used Chlorhexidine and F10 I prefer F10 for its keeping stability.

Baking the wood should be fine. I might suggest longer but either way it should be good. I spray wood stuff with f10 also but I have it so...
