Cleaning out your reptile cage.<\/h2>\n

Once a week you should clean out your reptile\u2019s cage. Clear the Air would like to share some step by step tips to cleaning out your cage:<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Relocate your reptile <\/strong><\/em>to a temporary cage.<\/li>\n
  2. Remove all decorations from the cage.<\/li>\n
  3. Scoop out any feces from the cage along with shed skin. You can sprinkle Clear the Air\u2019s Pet Odor Eliminator <\/a>in the cage. It is all natural and 100% non-toxic to your reptile. We also recommend placing an Odor Eliminator Bag<\/a> on top or near your cage to help keep odor down.<\/li>\n
  4. Clean, rinse and disinfect your water and food bowls. Food and water dishes should be washed in hot, soapy water, and dried thoroughly. To provide more cleaning power, use a disinfectant. Always rinse well to be sure no trace of soap or disinfectant remains on the dishes.<\/li>\n
  5. Clean all cage surfaces with soap and hot water and rinse well.<\/li>\n
  6. Wash all decorations and non-disposable substrate with hot, soapy water. Scrub with brushes to remove wastes and dried liquids then rinse well. After washing use a disinfectant but be sure to rinse the cage and accessories with hot water until all residues are removed.<\/li>\n
  7. Allow the cage and accessories to dry thoroughly before reassembling to reduce the risk of mold.<\/li>\n
  8. Put all your decorations back in the cage once they are thoroughly dry.<\/li>\n
  9. Once the cage is put back in order, you can return your reptile <\/strong><\/em>to his cage. Make sure to wash and thoroughly disinfect all cleaning equipment then lastly wash your hands with soap and water.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
