You're welcome, & btw, the only time I'd use bleach on an enclosure or furnishings (non-porous hides or bowls) is IF I had a confirmed seriously ill snake or one that passed away from unknown illness. I'd also clean such things multiple times with more than one thing before I'd ever re-use them for other animals (not ever mixing them, just using one after another) because these different disinfectants have different things they're most effective against. Bleach is quite strong & it's nasty to work with -we shouldn't be breathing it or soaking in it either& it's also hard on our environment in terms of disposal. I'd never use bleach for routine cleaning, plus it wastes a lot of water to rinse it completely away.
When I use white vinegar (generic brand is fine) on water bowls, I let them sit for about 10 minutes after scrubbing with it, & dispose of the vinegar in my toilet- incidentally, vinegar is GREAT for cleaning toilets too- without putting unnecessary chemicals into our wastewater.
