Safe to use?(Cleaner/disinfectant aviary also with rabbits)

[Harry's Mummy 0]

What can I use to clean the aviary floor that is not only safe for the birds but also for the rabbits & guineas that live there as well?

we use f10 its expensive stuff,but as you just need a teeny bit,it lasts for ages

Cheers Vikky, I did think it maybe that but wanted to check what with having the rabbits and all

[vikky 2]

i would imagine its safe to use around all animals as its what veterinarians use to clean too

Where's the cheapest place on the web to get the F10 from?

When we had our rabbits on a hard floor I used to hose it down with water - they never ailed a thing.

I do normally hose it down Net with water, but now there is birdy poop should I use a cleaner as such?

£8.25p for the super concentrate of 100ml appears to be the lowest price, several places on the web. But then you add the cost of postage.

Try a few local vets see if they stock/sell it?

(100ml doesn't sound much but lasts ages)

If it is any cheaper, check the sell by/use by dates!

 

Soapy water (I doubt if hot makes much difference outside)like good old washing up liquid, and a stiff brush/broom, with hosing off.

But I know you feel like it is better for occasional disinfection too

 

There are some products that soap and disinfect at the same time..can't remember the names, is it Arklens.. ?

And F10 do one too.

 

Unless you have a dirty build up (which still needs good basic cleaning and scrubbing before disinfection) or disease, personally think that good regular basic cleaning is enough.

 

Guess you will just have to wash the bunnies with whatever you clean bunnies with if they get pooped on :shock:
