3) Kiln dried pine bedding. It's cheap and works great for the smell.

4) Clean at least once a week.
x2. For norway rats, i believe cleaning every five days is essential. I breed ASFs n i clean them every 7-10 days. I use the dried pine, and sprinkle a litter additive that extends the useful life of the litter. In addition, i have a fan in our animal room constantly circulating air. No real problems with smell.
