I use vinegar when I clean out the litter boxes (rinsing thoroughly), and
clean the self-stick tile in their cage with antibacterial Mr. Clean.  I
know that stuff isn't the safest, but I use it to clean off the
bottom-scrapes the girls insist on doing after potty breaks :)  I do wipe
it down with a damp rag and dry it thoroughly afterward.
 
Does anyone have other suggestions as to what I can use to clean boxes and
vinyl tile?  Fuzzie safe recipes?  I heard a tip where you add 1/3 baking
soda to 2/3 vinegar; is this effective at killing germs?
 
Thank you so much!

p.s.  I am sorry to hear about the passing of Bandit...I have been
following his story since he was accidentally stepped on a while ago.  I
don't know why, but I've been keeping track.  Very sad, my prayers are
with Bandit's hoomans.
