So why I even start is because snakes will trick you into cleaning their tubs and then they'll finish going the next day. I say this because it happens to me all the time. You will wash their tub, new paper, everything. Then in a day or two they finish the job. I say this because it will save paper and money. Now if they make a total mess then I say ok clean it. But sometimes it's just like little eurates and you get tricked. So save yourself the stress and pick a day. Any day, and I recommend weekly and two days before feeding day. So some of you may disagree but this will work best, unless you don't mind... Then just go right ahead
