So recently I’ve been lucky enough to be put in a waiting list for a baby albino hognose snake. As I’ve been gathering supplies to get ready for my first reptile, I was wondering what cleaning supplies I would need to clean the enclosure? I know certain products won’t be reptile safe, and I can’t find anything of use at the local petsmart, and there’s no other pet stores or specialty stores around where I live. Does anyone have any recommendations for what to use to clean up the enclosure when needed? Are there any products that are most certainly not safe for cleaning with?

The f10 brand of disinfectants are quite good and are used by vets, so are animal/reptile safe.

I use bleach free disinfectant wipes to spot wipe when I take out soiled substrate, and chlorhexidine In a spray bottle when I clean tubs I’ve been very happy with it since I started using it this summer.

I use Chlorhexidine to clean everything except the water dish. A cap full to a spray bottle of water. For the water bowls I use dish soap. You can get Chlorhexidine at Tractor Supply or Amazon.
