Just a suggestion. I've always heard not to use bleach. Definetly don't use a commercial window cleaner. I've been using "Quat plus" from Big Apple Herp for over 13 yrs now. I clean the cages and glass with it. It kills everything and its safe for all pets. I commend you on doing as much reseach as humanly possible before getting your pet. Your pet will thank you...you just won't hear him/her say it.
